Just picked up an older 486dx2-66 eisa bus, with a VLB HD/FD controller. 
Its got a Quantum 525 meg drive. I'm going to retire a 386dx/33 that is 
currently running bsd on a WD 420 meg drive.

The WD dual boots dos/bsd, but would like to dedicate the entire Quantum 
to BSD. Should I put the Western Digital as Drive C and move the quantum 
so it would be drive D and install BSD there? Would this work ok? That is 
if the two drives will exist togther. 

Does BSD support IDE drives connected to a VLB contoller ok?
