The undocumented /usr/etc/scsimodes claims to have the syntax scsimodes [-B] <raw-dev> But, in fact, -B gives an error. -v, however, does work, and gives basically a bunch more info about the device. I'd imagine you could create a disktab from the info given by this command, but it certainly doesn't come in disktab format. (scsimodes, for the curious, apparently just asks your drive to spit out its parameters like block length and number of cylinders. There may be other (destructive) functions, as well, but who knows?) -william shipley
