We use in QNX 4.25L scsi MO disk drive Olympus MOS 540E (AIC - 7850), disk
2,3 GB, 512 B/sec.
Using driver in QNX:

Fsys.aha8scsi &
mount /dev/mo0 /mo0,

but with disk 2,6 GB, 1024 B/sec is mount unsuccessful. In Windows ME is
possible to use this HW (drive and disk) like this. I tried to use parameter
Fsys.aha8scsi fsys -B, but no result. Is it possible to use this 2.6 GB disk
in QNX 4.25?

Thanks in advance

What is the exact error from mount?

Does “ls -s /dev/mo0” report the correct size of the MO?

Are you sure the MO isn’t partitioned (does fdisk interpret anything
sensible)? If it is partitioned then you need a newer Fsys (older
ones didn’t correctly handle partitions on non-512-byte-sector media)
and then of course “mount -p”. Or format the entire/raw MO.
