[rescue] non-SUN disks in an enterprise

Hi,

I have this Sun Ultra Enterprise which has 6 disks, three are real SUN
disks and they automatically mount. The other three are Seagate's that
do not identify themselves as being SUN which do not get mounted.

probe-scsi sees them, as does prtconf -v. However, 'format' does not
detect the disk.. Is this a Sun-measure to prevent non-Sun-labeled disks
being used? Can I get around it? (Or maybe I just don't know enough of
Solaris 9..)

Cheers,
Walter.
