Hmm, here is my target config, compare.
# SCSI stuff for vpo
#
controller scbus0
options SCSI_REPORT_GEOMETRY
device da0
device pass0 #CAM passthrough driver
#
# Parallel-Port Bus
#
# Parallel port bus support is provided by the `ppbus' device.
# Multiple devices may be attached to the parallel port, devices
# are automatically probed and attached when found.
#
# Supported devices:
# vpo Iomega Zip Drive
# Requires SCSI disk support ('scbus' and 'sd'), best
# performance is achieved with ports in EPP 1.9 mode.
# nlpt Parallel Printer
# ppi General-purpose I/O ("Geek Port")
#
# Supported interfaces:
# ppc ISA-bus parallel port interfaces.
#
controller ppbus0
controller vpo0 at ppbus?
device nlpt0 at ppbus?
device ppi0 at ppbus?
device plip0 at ppbus?
controller ppc0 at isa? port 0x278 tty irq 7 vector ppcintr
