You have it configured as the first drive on the second >controller. I just installed 2.1.6. I originally had my ATAPI CD as slave on the second channel (without a master drive on that channel) and FreeBSD didn't detect the secondary controller at all. This took me a while to work out, as the CD worked fine on my other OSs. Anyway I changed the CD to the master on the second channel and it is working fine. ===================================================================== Lachlan O'Dea <LODea@cybec.com.au> Cybec Pty Ltd Technical Support Officer VET Anti-virus software http://www.cybec.com.au/
