I've been able to install fbsd on my system with a Mitsumi 8x IDE CDROM, 
which was a pleasant experience given my problems a few months ago with 
the Creative Labs 4x.  Anyways, after installing it, when I boot up, the 
drive isn't found in the probe.

It's looking for it at INT10, 300h.  It's currently connected as slave on 
/wd0, and I can't seem to get the setting right for it.  Has anybody had 
this problem, or have a solution to it?

On a semi-related note, fbsd isn't finding /wd1 on probe.  The PC boots 
up and recognizes the controller fine (the motherboard has two IDE 
controllers), and has no problem (other than an annoying delay at bootup) 
recognizing the drive on it (a WD Caviar; there's a 1.2G Seagate on wd0 
with the CDROM).  It sounds like a hardware problem more than anything 
else, but I was wondering if anybody else had any similar sort of experience.

Not sure the exact make of the MB, but I do know it's a triton chipset.  PCI.

Mike.
