Hi All:
I am using an adaptor between a 1TB SATA hard drive and solaris 8 box with 68 pin scsi. I use the format utility to partition the HD which works fine but when I use newfs, I get some errors. I will place them below.
I have blocked and the error message is in red.
Anybody got any idea how to rectify this situation?
