Hi! Sean and other FreeBSD fans,

(1) CDROM
use acd0c or ad0? Do I need create /dev/acd0a and /dev/acd0c manually?

(2) ZIP
I create the entry in pccard.conf by myself, and it was detected,
but I got following error message:
'ata-2 - slave: ata2_command : timeout waiting for intr.'
'ata-2 - slave: ata2_identify failed'
'ata-2 - master : <IOMEGA ZIP250 ATAPI/31G>floppy device - No Driver'

If This Zip Drive were running at MS Win98 and without manufactuer's
driver, it will be recognized as a movable disk. now I am trying changed 
the ata2 to atapifd0 (I found this on hardware.txt ), do you know what is 
the device name of atapifd on /dev? do I needed to create one?

Thanks
