has anyone had any luck getting a floppy drive connected through a scsi adapater ? i came across a floppy drive connect to something which shows up as this: Mar 23 20:55:03 freebsd /kernel: (ahc0:0:0): "TEAC FC-1 HF 11 RV J" type 0 removable SCSI 1 Mar 23 20:55:03 freebsd /kernel: sd0(ahc0:0:0): Direct-Access Mar 23 20:55:03 freebsd /kernel: sd0(ahc0:0:0): NOT READY asc:4,0 Mar 23 20:55:03 freebsd /kernel: sd0(ahc0:0:0): Logical unit not ready, cause n ot reportable Mar 23 20:55:03 freebsd /kernel: sd0: could not get size Mar 23 20:55:03 freebsd /kernel: Mar 23 20:55:03 freebsd /kernel: sd0(ahc0:0:0): ILLEGAL REQUEST asc:26,0 Invalid field in parameter list Mar 23 20:55:03 freebsd /kernel: sd0 could not mode sense (4). Using fictitious geometry Mar 23 20:55:03 freebsd /kernel: 0MB (0 512 byte sectors) I've no idea whether it is a 720k or 1.4MB floppy - it is a 3.5" unit. Any clues ? I'd love to have a scsi-only PC :-) darren p.s. FWIW, FreeBSD (2.2.8) did the best job of detecting it in the trial which also involved linux 2.2.3 and solaris7.
