The description of the drive is incorrect in /etc/format.dat. I was wondering if any one out there has both drive jumper settings and format information for this drive. Below is the information that I was given from the company where I purchased the drive but does not seem to work. # of data cyl: 1218 # of alt. cyl: 6 # of phy. cyl: 1224 # of heads: 15 sectors/track: 35 rpm: 3600 interleave: 1 Thanks in advance.
