IBM has special firmware for their ST (Seagate) OEM'd disks. You can use the IBM utility (runs from a CD in DOS), or the sgdskfl utility under Linux from scsirastools.sf.net. But do verify the SCSI cabling/termination first. Andy -----Original Message----- From: Tugrul Galatali [mailto:tugrul@galatali.com] Sent: Thursday, July 24, 2003 9:02 PM To: Justin T.
