Try : # stty status ^T # disklabel -rwB sd0 auto If the disklabel command hangs, hit ^T and you should see something like: load: 0.47 cmd: disklabel 29432 [vnread] 0.00u 0.00s 0% 20k It would be very useful to know what the word in [] is in your case. > controller ppbus0 # ppbus stuff > controller vpo0 at ppbus0 > device nlpt0 at ppbus0 > device ppi0 at ppbus0 > device plip0 at ppbus0 > > controller ppc0 at isa? port 0x278 irq 12 flags 0x1 vector ppcintr > > > #device lpt0 at isa? port "IO_LPT2" tty irq 12 vector lptintr > device lpt1 at isa? port "IO_LPT1" tty irq 7 vector lptintr I suspect that it would be a Very Bad Idea to have the lpt driver in your kernel at the same time as the ppbus code. Also, are you sure about IRQ 12 for the first port? mike
