Hey All,

well I have finally gotten the 840 meg harddrive for my ci running netbsd 
well I use aps 2.7.3 to format the drive.
and then when I am trying to use the mkfs program on the mac side i get 
an error.
modesense page 4(1)
error on SCSIRead(), # 5
Probably just a phase error, Ignore error -- this time.
Num Heads 4
Num Cylinders = 3653
modesense page3(1)
Bytes_Sector is 512
Sectors Track is 120
Partition read, SCSIID = 1

it seems to run alright after that but when I try to fsck the drive in 
the unix side and run fsck on the new disk I get an error
*** sd1a
BAD SUPER BLOCK: MAGIC NUMBER WRONG
sd1a: NOT LABLED AS A BSD FILE SYSTEM (unknown)

Well What now gang...
