All,

I currently am running a Sun Ultra 5 workstation running solaris 7. The
problem that I am having is getting it to recognize a disk size larger than
8.55Gb. Whenever I run the format command it only reads slice 2 on the disk
as 8.55Gb. This is for an external scsi drive. The internal ide drive it
shows the 29Gb disk drive. The disk I am trying to get it to recognize is an
18Gb external scsi drive. Thank You all for you support.

Thanks,
Jason
