Dear experts,
I'm using FreeBSD-4.9 RELEASE on two different machines. One with an
NEC 100MB ATAPI Zip drive and another with an 250MB USB Zip drive.
The 100MB medium can't be exchanged between the two drives when it is
labled and ufs formatted. The partition and label in the 250 MB USB Zip
drive works well, but can only be udes as /dev/afd0a on the ATAPI drive.
Partition and newfs on the ATAPI drive only works, when I cut off 32
sectors of the partition a. Otherwise I get
96904 : disklabel afd0
# /dev/afd0c:
type: ESDI
disk: afd0s1
label:

bytes/sector: 512

super-block backups (for fsck -b #) at:

newfs: wtfs - writecombine: Input/output error
There seems to be a 32 sector difference induced by the driver, or the
drive?
Who can help?
Regards
Lars
