Drive Error on VS4000/VLC - "84 FAIL"

28 Feb 2004

Hello,

I am attempting to install NetBSD on a VS4000/VLC.
I am getting write errors when I try.  So attempted
to format the drive via the console:

First: T/UT 10
Next choose erase hd: option 3
Enter ID and LUN
Remember to type OK at the OK prompt and not y!

My problem is it does not finish sucessfully.  I
get an "84 FAIL" error.

Is there any solution or is it new drive time?  I was
hoping to be asking NETBSD questions.

Thanks
Max
