I am trying to figure out how to make 
my parrallel port zip get recognized
as da2 instead of da0 at boot time.

the problem is that freebsd is on da0
now but if i plug in the zip drive
it gets recognized as da0 and my hard drive
gets set to da1, naturally nothing works
this way.

I even went as far as editing loader.conf
and then changing my /etc/fstab file
to point to da1, what i ended up with was
that the root mounted and /var mounted
but /usr got a message saying something
about cannot stat /dev/da1s1f....
filesystem inconsistancy, run fsck manually.

anyone have any ideas?

i am not on list, please CC me
