I am having various problems with getting a SyQuest EZ135 to work 
correctly under FreeBSD 2.1(January), these include:-

Formatting the cartridge
crc errors
Machine locking out other devices if the cartridge isn't present
FreeBSD thinking is 250Mb instead of 135Mb (DOS & BIOS are OK)

Can anyone send me any info, help or guidance with anything to do
on getting a SyQuest working with FreeBSD, I will then construct
and entry for the FAQ.

Thanks

Andy
