I read your mails, but some more (important) info needed.

* What kind of formatter do you use?  If you using Apple's
HD SC Setup, try 3rd partys' one and vice versa.

* Which kernel do you use?  I've experienced some Quantum
drive didn't like GENERIC kernel using ncrscsi.  So if you
using GENERIC kernel, try GENERICSBC and v.v.

* Did you make device files in /dev?  If you didn't that, it
won't boot correctly.

* Did you check the FAQ?  It answers your questions, IIRC.
The mount command does the trick, but I don't remember the
command line options exactly, so check the FAQ.

It's a chance to raise your skill in unix.  Good luck!
