Any SGI techs out there?

I've having an issue with installing on a new drive in my Indy R5000.

Can you provide some advice for me?

what sort of problems specifically? can you see its ID (set to 1?) on the scsi bus? have got the end connector on? other scsi devices are ok?

if the disk is ok, you need to run 'fx' to format the disk.
