Hello,
I am having some problems with my DAC960PG. Here is part of dmesg:

The first problem I have is that when I reboot the drives I have previously
configured and used show up as having an invalid partition table. I tried
swapping controllers and get the same result. The controller I am using now
just came back from RMA.
debian:/home/andy# fdisk /dev/rd/c0d0
Device contains neither a valid DOS partition table, nor Sun disklabel
Building a new DOS disklabel. Changes will remain in memory only,
until you decide to write them. After that, of course, the previous
content won't be recoverable.
Command (m for help): p
Disk /dev/rd/c0d0: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 553 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
Command (m for help):
Secondly, I can initialize the Viking II from within daccf, and check it for
errors, but when I reboot the drive is always marked as dead. If I remove the
drive and put it in another machine it will format and work properly.
DAC960#0: Irrecoverable Data Error on READ:
DAC960#0: /dev/rd/c0d1: absolute blocks 0..1
Thanks,
