It's kinda cool. Now I'm wondering if I can use it to write the proper data to the configuration register telling it to not be in PATA mode. OTOH, the potential to do improper things seems great so this is a bit scary. I wonder if the dell is feeding bogus data to fbsd 7, or fbsd 7 is misinterpreting what it's getting from the dell? -- Randy (schulra@earlham.edu) 765.983.1283 <*> Love with your heart, think with your head; not the other way around.
