Dear -BSD users,

suppose I have 3 scsi disks installed with SCSI ID's 0,1,2.
They are accessible as da0, da1 and da2.   
If I remove the disk with SCSI ID = 1,  the system renumbers
the rest of the disks, i.e.  a  former da2 becomes da1.
Is there any way to hard-code devices, so that if I remove
the disk,  device numbers would not change (i.e. the disk
that has been da2 will remain da2)?  
Thank you!
	Vladimir
