I have that problem too.. only has done it w/ 2.2.5+ (didnt do it in 2.2.1) but if i dont have a slave device connected to my primary ide controller, it takes what seems like minutes (probably about 1 minute) to probe the secondary controller.. kind of weird but i just live with it.. its got some really old devices on a fairly modern mainboard.. vs440fx chipset w/ an ancient 1.2gb maxtor ide hdd, and on the secondary port, a 4x atapi cdrom... rebuilding the kernel wont help unless theres some secret lint option i dont know about :) i just learn to live with it and reboot as rarely as possible mike reeh michaelr@ss454.dyn.ml.org On Sun, 9 Aug 1998, Geoff Ludwiczak wrote: > Hi, > > I just installed FreeBSD 2.2.7, and I love the Operating System, but it's a > pain starting it up.
