Re: [foxboro] USB harddrives connected to a P81

Yes I have.

It worked ok for me with a USB drive.  I did this I think.  You do not
have boot -r just plug them in and away you go.

When you plug it in to the usb port, look in /var/adm/messages
look for "(scsa2usb.) online"=20
i.e. grep "(scsa2usb.) online" /var/adm/messages
it should reply with a line with date time blah blah
/pci@1f,0/usb@c,3/storage
now look for the above in /dev/dsk
ls -l /dev/dsk | grep "/pci@1f,0/usb@c,3/storage"
you'll see c2t0d0s0 etc
now use that in the mount command
mount -F pcfs /dev/dsk/c2t0d0s0:c /mnt

note the :c

Hi List,

has anybody external USB or Firewire drives connected succesfully to a
P81 with Solaris 8?

I would like to hear the story because it didn't work out of the box
(including reboot) and I would like to use external drives on these
machines.

Andreas
