Please just write an extra patch for that, I'll apply it after testing with Linux and MacOS. > You can format you himd walkman as followed: > > 1) use cdrecord -scanbus to find your walkman > The entry should look like this: > scsibus 6: > 6,0,0 600> 'SONY ' 'Hi-MD WALKMAN' ' '1000' Removable Disk > > 2) then use ./himdformat_scg 6,0,0 to format you MD > This works fine in Windows, so I think it should work on mac/linux, too. Ah, yes. Haven't had the time today after returning home yesterday to test himdformat_scg with real hardware. Since Michael has the MZ-RH1, he should bring it to the uni tomorrow. @Michael: Could you test himdformat_scg (from current git/master) as Thomas suggests? Afterwards, we can test on the Mac in the uni as well. Adrian
