Actually, it looks to be just a documentation "bug". Further reading of the source shows that in isp_pci.c, it now just reads the sysctl variables as driver hints (set in /boot/device.hints). That's probably the better way to do it since the values don't get changed once the system is booted. Good to see it's still modifiable! Cheers, Ross. --
