Also, you need fd0 if you want the drive o= n=20 fdc0 to show up. This is what I use (sio0 is there so it can be used as a= =20 serial console): hint.fd.0.at=3D"fdc0" hint.fd.0.drive=3D"0" hint.sc.0.at=3D"isa" hint.sc.0.flags=3D"0x100" hint.sio.0.at=3D"isa" hint.sio.0.port=3D"0x3F8" hint.sio.0.flags=3D"0x10" hint.sio.0.irq=3D"4" =2D-=20 John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org> <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve" =3D http://www.FreeBSD.org
