Richard Z. suggesting using atari-fdisk and qxltool to get the Syquest up 
and running.

I used atari-fdisk to partition the drive (1 partition).  I used qxltool to 
format the disk.  I first tried something like this:

    qxltool -W /dev/hdb1 0 label

This got an error during format (unknown error 1771094350).  So, I used 127 
instead of 0. I then had to run the fix-geometry command in qxltool to get 
that set (32/16).

When I try to access the disk in SMSQ/E, it does not see it.  I set 
WIN_DRIVE 3,1,0.  Using the WIN_DRIVE$ command I get 1,0,1 (which is 
correct).  But when I copy a file from win1_ to win3_, it shows up on win1_ 
as "win1_win3_.....".

Anybody have any ideas?

Now for my other adventure (see next message).
