Subject: ATAboy2F + SGI IRIX 6.5.13f
so...everytime i try to use fx to partition the disk, i get an error whenever
fx is trying to write a label to the disk.
when i start fx and open the disk (bus 3, id 0, lun 0) i get this:
..opening dksc(3,0,0,)
..drive selftest...OK
fx: Warning: invalid label from disk driver, ignored Scsi drive type == NEXSAN
ATAboy(C0A809A2)5020 ..creating default bootinfo ..created default partitions,
use /repartition menu to change ..creating default volume directory fx: Error:
invalid argument: Driver update failed!
then, after doing the repartition as option drive, and exiting to write out the
label, i get this:
Tried to read 1 blocks, only read 0 at 0
retry #2
Tried to read 1 blocks, only read 0 at 0
retry #3
Tried to read 1 blocks, only read 0 at 0
retry #4
Tried to read 1 blocks, only read 0 at 0
label info has changed for disk dksc(3,0,0). write our changes? (yes) <i hit
enter, then...> fx/exit: Error: Invalid argument: Drive update failed!
fx/exit: Error: Invalid argument: label write failed!
