Hi all

While PCI plug 'n play devices seem to work nicely with FreeBSD, we find
that ISA ones are not detected and that we have to configure them as though
they are not plug 'n play. Is the pnp0 controller in the kernel config for PCI
only? Or is there a way to get the ISA ones to be automagically detected
upon bootup? Maybe with some BIOS tweak?

On a different note, we have noticed with 3.2 FreeBSD that changes made to
the kernel config upon bootup are not recorded to the disk image (even though
the message `saving kernel -c changes' appears during the boot sequence).
Is this a 3.2 specific bug that is fiixed in 3.3?

And on a final note - are any of the FreeBSD hackers going to the IETF meet in
November? It would be good to meet some of the crew...
