We have just purchased an IOMEGA ZIP 100 drive for one of our PCs and
I am trying it out on our AlphaStation 400. It is recognized by the
system and I have successfully created a tar archive on one of the disks.
On IOMEGA's home page there are "format.dat" entries for it. I've tried
adding similar entries to my /etc/disktab file, but it keeps coming up
and saying such disk type found when I try to write a disklabel on it.
using disklabel -r -w /dev/rrz5c zip100, where zip100 is the name I
gave the entry in the disktab file.
Can anyone let me know if it is possible, and if so, how to create a
filesystem on an IOMEGA ZIP 100 disk.
Thanks.
(btw: format.dat entries are for Solaris, I'm assuming it is the Solaris
equivalent to /etc/disktab on Digital Unix)
