I just got my new Fujitsu 2513A6 drive with a 640 Mb media and had it
running in less than an hour, using FreeBSD 3.0-current SMP as of 08/15/97.

Obviously this disklabel is missing at least the number of tracks per
cylinder (nt#XXX). So here is the disklabel I have constructed from
the values given at boot time (number of sectors), and the information
Fujitsu has online at their WWW pages:

MO640|Fujitsu 2513A MO drive 640 Mb:\
	:dt=SCSI:ty=removable:\
	:nc#19397:ns#16:nt#1:\
	:se#2048:rm#3600:\
	:pa#310352:oa#0:ta=4.2BSD:ba#4096:fa#2048:\
	:pc#310352:oc#0:\
	:pd#310352:od#0:

Labeling the drive using this disklabel works as well as a newfs onto
the drive:

# disklabel -w -r od0 MO640
# newfs -m 0 -o space -i 12288 -u 16 -t 1 -c 413 /dev/rod0a
/dev/rod0a:     1241408 sectors in 19397 cylinders of 1 tracks, 64 sectors
        606.2MB in 47 cyl groups (413 c/g, 12.91MB/g, 1088 i/g)
