hi,
i tried to mount a msdos filesystem (preformated) on a maxtor
onetouch 200gb usb harddisk.
but
mount -r -t msdos /dev/da1s1 /mnt
gives the following error:
mountmsdosfs(): disk too big, sorry
the disk is detected fine:
umass0: Maxtor OneTouch, rev 2.00/2.00, addr 2
umass0: Get Max Lun not supported (STALLED)
da1 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0
da1: <Maxtor OneTouch 0200> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-0 device
da1: 650KB/s transfers
da1: 194480MB (398295040 512 byte sectors: 64H 32S/T 63408C)
i am running
FreeBSD aeolus.pinhead.lan.at 4.9-STABLE FreeBSD
4.9-STABLE #2: Wed Oct 29 13:54:44 CET 2003
fdisk -l:
******* Working on device /dev/da1 *******
parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are:
cylinders=24792 heads=255 sectors/track=63 (16065 blks/cyl)
Figures below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1
parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are:
cylinders=24792 heads=255 sectors/track=63 (16065 blks/cyl)
Media sector size is 512
Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1
Information from DOS bootblock is:
The data for partition 1 is:
sysid 12,(DOS or Windows 95 with 32 bit FAT, LBA)
start 63, size 398267352 (194466 Meg), flag 0
beg: cyl 0/ head 1/ sector 1;
end: cyl 214/ head 254/ sector 63
The data for partition 2 is:
<UNUSED>
The data for partition 3 is:
<UNUSED>
The data for partition 4 is:
<UNUSED>
is this a known problem? under linux mounting the fs works
flawlessly. seems like this is a limitation of the freebsd msdosfs
driver. is it possible to port the driver from linux?
thanks for your time
toni
