(Every part was in working order) Now there is a problem concerning a quantum SCSI disk, namely a "QUANTUM FIREBALL_TM1080S" This is supposed to be a 2.1 gig drive which worries me because I thought it was supposed to show 2110 instead of 1080.. but I have to rely on what the remote company (I'm not a USA redident) says (searching the quantum site doesn't clearly give information regarding this) They've informed me the drive shows: "sd1(NCR0:1:0): NOT READY asc:4,d5 Vendor Specific ASCQ, FALIURE" and then later on: "sd1: could not get size" I have never encountered these kind of messages before.. There were no problems when I did the installation of FreeBSD, as a "dangerously dedicated" disk. The system was maintained for a week without any problems like these arising at all.. it worked ok before the shipment to the USA. Any help would be greatly appreciated, what's wrong and what can I do about it (if at all possible) ? Does anyone know this drive is really of 2 gig capacity or if there could have been a mixup (1080 sounds like a 1 gig drive to me) ? I know I should have written this stuff down before sending (stupid me!) :-( Thanks in advance, I hope there is someone who is able to help me, Sincerely, Jeroen
