Hi !...

I've some IBM 0661-471 SCSI hards drives low formated in 406 Mb 520
bytes/sector and wish to read the content of it, but NetBSD-1.5.2 seem not
ok to do that.

At boot, NetBSD report he found the drive but "could not sense mode 4/5" and
"using a fictitious geometry".

I've 'low?' formatted one and now it report himself as a 387Mb
512bytes/sector, but should be 400Mb in 512b/s and 406Mb in 520b/s... (from
datasheet)
...then I suspect I've just formated it in 512b/s under a 520b/s low format
? :-/

Is there a possibility to say disklabel use a 520b/s geometry by entering
all drive parameters by hand or must tweak sd.c and other SCSI or what ever
drivers ?
