using the Adaptec afdisk to remake the dos partition and then unix fdisk, disklabel, newfs (thanks Jim) lets the optical driver (od0) to use the drive. my problem is the original dos partition was usable with DOS, but when Unix read that MBR it recieved bad values. thank you all for your help. --mark. ps. I think a failure of the check_part with a bad MBR is better than panicing the system.
