Do you really have 4 wd devices plugged in? Uh, well, no, just 2 (on the first IDE controller). > Assuming you don't have 4 drives, I'd suggest you slave your ATAPI CDROM > device on your primary IDE controller. So you'd do something like: Wow. Thanks a million! I didn't even have to go so far, I just deleted wd2 and wd3 and acd0 now appears as if by magic. I can't tell you how extremely stupid I now feel... OTOH, I copied this from the GENERIC kernel config file, assuming it recognizes an ATAPI CDROM when it finds one. So my puzzled question is now: how can the GENERIC kernel work in that case, since it declares wd[0-3] ? -- Pierre Beyssac pb@enst.fr To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
