I posted this a few days ago, but now it's really biting me in the butt, and I'd like to see if it's fixable before I throw out the baby and the bathwater. I have a box with a 3940UW and 2940AU. In the BIOS scan of the PCI bus, it finds the 3940 first, then the 2940. Swapping cards in the PCI slots confirms this order. *however*, when FreeBSD boots, it *always* finds the 2940 first, and assigns it as ahc0, and the 3940 as ahc1 and ahc2. This is broke I think. This is problematic, as when booting (since I have a JAZ drive on the 2940), It assigns sd0 to the JAZ, *and* makes me type: 0:sd(1,a)/kernel to the boot blocks to boot each time, which is a major drag. This behaviour seems specific to FreeBSD, as other OS's find them in the same order as the BIOS scan. IS this easily fixable?
