I am trying to install a Fuji 18GB scsi drive into an existing 3.7
install and ran into an issue with fdisk.
The dmesg shows this:
mpt0 at pci1 dev 3 function 0 "Symbios Logic 53c1030" rev 0x08: irq 11
mpt0: IM support: 6
scsibus0 at mpt0: 16 targets
sd0 at scsibus0 targ 0 lun 0: <FUJITSU, MAS3184NP, 0104> SCSI3 0/direct fixed
sd0: 17524MB, 27206 cyl, 2 head, 659 sec, 512 bytes/sec, 35890512 sec total
..and I noticed that '659 sec' will be too much for fdisk and as suspected:
# fdisk -i sd0
fdisk: sysctl(machdep.bios.diskinfo): Device not configured
-----------------------------------------------------
------ ATTENTION - UPDATING MASTER BOOT RECORD ------
-----------------------------------------------------
Do you wish to write new MBR and partition table? [n] y
Warning CHS values out of bounds only saving LBA values
So what is recommended to do at this point. This is a brand new drive
attached to an LSI (mpt) u360 controller.
Can someone please help me or point me to a web page that can explain
what to do in this case? - this is hardly a large size drive.....
thanks in advance!
