If this is the case then there must be some hardware or bios problem
here.  He needs to check the bios settings then crack the box if that does
not solve it for him.

 | I could be wrong, but doesn't he need two As in the device names? That is,
 | cuaa0 and cuaa1.

The pattern in the case statement in MAKEDEV is 'cuaa?|cua?)' so either will
