Subject: SCSI configuration for the kernel?
Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org
X-Loop: FreeBSD.org
Precedence: bulk
Status: RO


  I found that the ``invalid primary partition table: no magic''
  warning is coming from the isa driver code...  it is looking
  for a magic number at some offset addr.

  Two questions here:: one, why isn't disklabel writing this
  magic number?  And two, might it be the case that I am missing
  some configuration line in my sys/i386/config/KERNEL file?

  I already have

  device        sd0

  in my configuration file.  Do I need a

  device        sd1

  line there also?  The docs in /usr/share/docs say that the 
  `devive	sd0' line should take care of drives 0 - 3.
  If true, why am I getting the `invalid' warning and how do 
  I resolve this?

  Thanks.
