Yes, it also worked like that for quite some time in my FreeBSD box for
more than 2 years on the my company's old Linux internet gateway/small
server, with IDE disks and a network mounted CDrom running on the
secondary channel.. No problems whatsoever..

I understand this resource allocation assures perfect compliance with the
hardware specs and if so it should really be done this way, however I
think this will brake many Teles cards out there once people start
changing to FreeBSD 4.x so it should be at least documented, preferably
with the switch settings since the card is old and people tend to lose
the docs (I didn't have mine's so it took some trial and error to match
IO and switches.. some people will surely have problem with that)

Gabriel
