Before I replaced it I looked through the mailing lists archives to see if the "IDE" ZIP disks were supported (they are) so I when out and bought one. I added the approriate info to my config file and rebuilt and installed the new kernel. When I boot the system I get the following: wdc0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7 irq 14 on isa wdc0: unit 0 (atapi): , removable, intr, iordis No device is assigned to the disk (I would exepct to see wd0) and I cannot access the disk. I also noticed that the ZIP probes as an ATAPI device. Does FreeBSD support ATAPI ZIP drives? This is my fist try at using IDE, can some one point out what I am doing wrong? Greg Shaffer PS. I am running current (as of Oct 8) on a Tyan Tomcat III with 2x166, 64MB RAM, Adaptec 2940, ATI Mach64. -------
