Date: 20 Nov 1996 08:37:48 GMT Organization: Oregon State University, College of Engineering Lines: 21 Message-ID: <56ug0s$nqj@engr.orst.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: wy.engr.orst.edu Keywords: iomega zip scsi netbsd sparc Hello there. Can someone please tell me how to get an IOMEGA ZIP 100 drive to work on my Sparc running NetBSD 1.2?? I had it working under Solaris (though it could not read MSDOS stuff). I believe it's just a matter of setting the proper geometry in disktab, but for the life of me I cannot find that geometry posted anywhere on the net. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Robert Smith PS/ the hardware is probed at boot time, and I get a message about unknown something or rather... using default geometry (which of course doesn't work....)
