Date: Wed, 24 Mar 1999 13:57:21 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2448.0) Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, I'm considering a new system for FreeBSD (3.1) which as delivered will have no SCSI support. If I decide to go this route, l will add my current SCSI controller and its peripherals (CD, Tape, disks etc.) to this system when it arrives. I've been running concurrent EIDE and SCSI disks for years on my current systems, but I've never owned an IDE based CDROM. Since this new system will come with an IDE based CDROM I'd like to know if FreeBSD 3.1 will behave with one non-SCSI CDROM and (at least) one SCSI CDROM. Does anyone have any experience with this configuration? Thanks, MikeC Michael C.
