Greetings,
        I just got an AlphaServer 800 with a QISP SCSI controller.
        I needed to adda 1gig drive so i can boot the box and
        get to the raid so i ordered a 1 gig IBM ultrastore. blank
        nothing on it. i tried to do an install and all went well
        until i did a bad blocks... EVERY BLOCK WAS BAD! ?!

        now the drive is useless... i cannot even get digital unix
        to see it. it fails on hardware test.

        what am i doing wrong!?

        do i need to do something before i fdisk?

        thanks

        -ian reinhart geiser
