Hello, I recently got an Iomega SCSI Zip 100 drive and would like to put a FreeBSD UFS partition on it that is as large as possible. I was wondering if anyone had a canned method for doing this. My understanding is that I need the followingthree steps: 1. Write fdisk partition label (or is it pfdisk?) 2. Use disklabel 3. Use newfs (possibly tunefs) I would need help mostly with the first two steps (what are the proper options for the Iomega 100 Zip media for the appropriate commands in steps 1 and 2?) It seems to me that the command line options should be pretty standard for the Iomega Zip 100 media. Thank You, JM -- Jeffrey M. Metcalf metcalf@snet.net
