Message-ID: <2a18efd98343b23676f46558b4da4e39@plan9.bell-labs.com> (raw)

if this is a particularly old computer,
perhaps it would work better to use

	disk/format -b /386/pbs /dev/sdC0/9fat

i was thinking that maybe your plan 9
partition was too far into the disk, but
it's the only thing on the disk, so that's
not it.
