I have just installed NetBSD 1.6.1 on a mac68k running on a Mac SE/30.
I would like to use an external SCSI Iomega zip drive as a backup device
to store various configuration files. I have successfully formatted the
disk with 'Mkfs', but am really having problems with disklabel. I have
read the man pages, but would still appreciate some help.
I would like to devote the entire disk to a single BSD file system. Below
is the description of the disk from disklabel. Could someone please walk me
through the commands to accomplish this.
Thanks,
Barry
