This text: >> controller wdc0 at isa? port "IO_WD1" bio irq 14 >> flags 0xa0ffa0ff >> vector wdintr should all be on one line: controller wdc0 at isa? port "IO_WD1" bio irq 14 flags 0xa0ffa0ff vector wdintr The 'vector' specification went away recently, and the 'bio' keyword will soon go as well. They tell the driver which interrupt routine and interrupt level to use. I'd guess that Dan's config file is a little older.
