Standard IDE through a multifunction card (QuickPath 13-port card with two floppy controllers [one disabled], IDE, two parallel [disabled], 4 serial [16550-emulating ASICs], game port), to a WD2200 Caviar; there's also a Quantum 80 MB drive on that controller, which isn't being used by *BSD. The controller is at IRQ 14 as usual. I also have an Adaptec 1542B with a Maxtor LXT340SY and an Archive Viper on it, but which isn't being used this early in the boot. -- Frank Mayhar fmayhar@acsc.com Advanced Computing Systems Company 3000 S.
