I just bought such a HD and try to install BSDi 2.0 on it with scsi id 2.
Installtation works perfect. Rebuilding the kernel with

config		bsd		root on sd2a and swap on sd2b

in the config file to.

Then when I boot with floppy:

Boot: sd(2,0)/bsd

I get :

can't read disk label
sd0: command failed, status 0
can't open sd(2,0)/bsd: can't read label.

I already did it with an other disk with scsi id 1 and had no problem.

I wondered to get the line with:

sd0: command ....	why sd0

If somebody out there has an idea, helps will be greatly appreciated

Configuration:
486/33 16MB RAM
1 ISA HD (C) with bsd 1.0 Disk wd0
1 ISA HD (D) with linux   Disk hdb
