Dear Gantleman,
i am trying to get SCSI working on my system (adaptec 2940)!
My boot floppy recgonize it perfectly, but when i try to set slice, i am
adviced:

Your Hard Disk is using > than 1024 cylinders, you should translate it
to logical counting....

How can i set up it?
Another questions:

When i am formating slices, i see:
Making new fs -b 8192 -f 1024 on /dev/wsd0s1[ab]

Is my block 8192 bytes long ?
How should i format it with 512 bytes long ?
when i try to use -b 512 it returns with -1 !

Can anybody help me ?
