(It could have been sd0 or wd2 as well.) You can try to wire your second SCSI disk down to the name ``sd2'' in FreeBSD (the other one will be sd3 then automatically). Have a look at /sys/i386/conf/LINT for comments on SCSI device wiring. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
