Attempting to format using the fdformat(8) command fails, as expected, because this command is written for the legacy fdc controller. Attempting to format using the 'camcontrol format' command typically results in command format errors; the 6-byte format command cannot be converted by the UFI translation layer in the umass driver. >How-To-Repeat: Assuming CAM bus 0/device 1/lun 0 is a Y-E Flashbuster drive as supplied with the Sony Vaio Z600: # camcontrol format 0:1:0 results in the following message from the kernel: umass1: Unsupported UFI command 0x04, 6 byte command should have been converted >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
