Consequently, no devices on that channel can be used to install from, install on or to generally access data on those. I have only encountered this problem on this mainboard (using ALi alladin chipset M1541/1543). When booting FreeBSD it will only find devices (HDs, CDROMs) on the primary IDE channel and will declare the secondary IDE controller as non-existant >How-To-Repeat: boot FreeBSD 3.0-RELEASE and try to install from/on a device on the secondary IDE channel >Fix: workaround: install on devices in the primary IDE channel. >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
