I ran that command... it sat at "Fromatting..." for about 20-30 minutes or so.. then had the following error:
lizard# camcontrol format da1 -v -w You are about to REMOVE ALL DATA from the following device: pass1: <SEAGATE ST410800N 7114> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-2 device pass1: Serial Number 00337771 pass1: 10.000MB/s transfers (10.000MHz, offset 8) Are you SURE you want to do this? (yes/no) yes Current format timeout is 10800 seconds Enter new timeout in seconds or press return to keep the current timeout [10800] Formatting...camcontrol: error sending format command CAM status is 0xb lizard#

Ok.. how long should that format take? it's a 9.x gig drive and that format took about 2 seconds...
It should have taken a lot longer than that.
Try this instead:
camcontrol format da1 -v -w
That will issue a non-immediate format command. It may be that your drive doesn't like the immediate format command but isn't returning an error.
