[X4U] Formatting a firewire drive in os9.2.2

[Brett Conlon]

I don't believe Drive Setup supports removable drives (incl Firewire), 
only SCSI and IDE.

The Silverlining utility by LaCie will format external drives, if you have 
it of course. I'm not sure if it is available on the web... had a look but 
couldn't find it. There are other formatting utilities but they are 
usually commercial-ware.

So, is the "Erase Disk" function under the Special menu not enough?

Cheers,

Formatting a firewire drive in os9.2.2

When I try to format a firewire drive in 9.2.2 drive setup v 2.1 it says 
to
all my firewire drives: "unsupported - can not format"...

Years ago I was told the best apple formatting software was the simple 
drive
setup...

So now how can I format a firewire drive in 9.2.2???

BTW: for varied reasons - I don't want to format in OSX...
