I upgraded the box that's been giving me trouble to RELENG_2_2 as of
this morning, danish time and it went straight through the operation
that would until now 100% probability hang it.

Thanks!

Now for the question:

	Assume a machine with a 3940 in it.  The bios will take bus A
	first, then bus B.  FreeBSD does the same thing.

	Now add a 2940 to it.  The bios goes 3940:A, 3940:B, 2940,
	FreeBSD goes 2940, 3940:A, 3940:B

why ?

I can understand that the order in the PCI slots matter and all that,
but shouldn't we be able to do it in the same order the BIOS does it ?
It's a semi-bad nuisance otherwise...
