OK, rmformat shows me nothing.
>From the log and prtconf, I can see that my USB drive is showing up as
c1t0d0, which is basically the information I am supposed to extract from
rmformat. But then the next step for either UFS or PCFS is to fdisk
/dev/rdsk/c1t0d0p0, and I have no p0, only a couple of sX entries,
X=[0..7].
