jump@buddy.css.gov: > I am trying to format a CDC Wren V 94186-383H disk on my sun 3/50 using > 4.0 format.... Unfortunately, OS4.0 format is broken, and will not handle the Wren V 94181-702 (and probably not the Wren V 94186-383H as well) even if you had the correct format.dat entry. The format supplied with 4.0.1 _can_ handle the Wren V 94181-702 (and therefore probably the 94186-383H as well). But, in case you want to try anyhow, here's the Wren V 94186-383H entry from the 4.0.1 format.dat: disk_type = "CDC Wren V 94186-383H" \ : ctlr = MD21 \ : ncyl = 1218 : acyl = 2 : pcyl = 1224 : nhead = 15 : nsect = 35 \ : rpm = 3600 : bpt = 20833 Good luck. --Doug Douglas Roberts Los Alamos National Laboratory (505)667-4569 dzzr@lanl.gov
