The 1c05 is just the version number of your CD-ROM's firmware. The standard ATA framework will detect any ATA device, but the 'NO DRIVER' message is telling you that your kernel doesn't have support for that device - which is why I'm wondering if you haven't installed your custom kernel. > Also, in the Lehey book, p. 361, the matcd0 configuration line is shown as follows: > controller matcd0 at isa? port 0x230 bio > > and I don't know what to think of "controller" versus "device" or the > "bio" at the end. "controller" and "bio" are old, deprecated options. The line as you have it (using "device") is correct. -- Matt Emmerton To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
