AFAIK no. You'll have to specify each bus by itself. Only the devices are dynamically allocated as they're probed (unless one use the fixed address syntax as shown). # BT: 2 fast disks + CD disk sd0 at scbus0 target 0 unit 0 disk sd2 at scbus0 target 2 device cd0 at scbus0 target 6 # 1742: mp1624 + all streamers disk sd1 at scbus1 target 1 tape st0 at scbus1 target 5 tape st1 at scbus1 target 4 It helps when you add or remove SCSI devices.

I have two controllers and use the following syntax. I don't have a twin channel controller so I'm not sure it is exactly the same but I guess so. Ask Justin in the freebsd-hackers list. controller bt0 at isa? port "IO_BT0" bio irq ? vector btintr controller scbus0 at bt0 controller ahb0 at isa? bio irq ? vector ahbintr controller scbus1 at ahb0 [ Cc: to Jacques ] -- Ollivier ROBERT -=- FreeBSD: The daemon is FREE! -=- roberto@freebsd.org -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- FreeBSD 2.x FAQ maintainer -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
