im trying to setup another old 486 box with a spare IDE ISA cache 
controller but cant get sysinstall to see the disk

the controller is a Tekram dc-600  on IRQ14  0x1F0
it has its own BIOS and recognises the disks properly and
I can get dos to boot on here but just cant get fbsd 4.4 (or Linux 
boot floppies) to see the disks at all

I noticed there is a flags option when choosing the hardware from 
the menu before device-probing so maybe there is  a chance 
changing the setting for this could help, but where can I find out 
what the options for the flags settings are ?

or is there any way to just force fbsd to map drives direct from 
BIOS ?

non-urgent question but any suggestions welcome
