ATI compatible radeon 9000 agp 4x video card The scsi disks have win nt images on them, from a previous system so I can continue running it until I get a new one with both freebsd and nt going off the sata drives. When booted, the nt system runs fine. I configured the mobo to boot from cd first, popped in the freebsd 4.10 cd. However, it boots the nt images off the scsi disks instead. So I unplugged the power from the scsi disks. It still wouldn't boot off the scsi cd. Is the mobo bios too dumb to recognize a scsi cd? So I popped in a 4.10 boot floppy and tried again. Turns out the boot floppy was bad, Boot: 0:fda(0,a)/floppy |\ Boot: I tried to force a boot from the cd, but I'm not sure what to use for the bios device and the device ids. The CD is configured as SCSI device 6. I tried: Boot: 1:da(6,a)/kernel -C Invalid label Invalid label No /kernel BIOS shows the following devices: Bus Device Function Vendor/Device Class Device Class IRQ Num Num Num 0 2 0 10DE 0067 0C03 USB 1.0/1.1 OHCI Ctlr 3 0 2 1 10DE 0067 0C03 USB 1.0/1.1 OHCI Ctlr 5 0 2 2 10DE 0068 0C03 USB 2.0 EHCI Ctrlr 10 0 4 0 10DE 0066 0200 Network ctlr 5 0 5 0 10DE 006B 0401 Multimedia Device 9 0 6 0 10DE 006A 0401 Multimedia Device 11 0 9 0 10DE 0065 0101 IDE controller 14 1 4 0 11AB 4520 0200 Network controller 5 1 6 0 104B 8130 0100 Mass Storage controller 11 1 11 0 1095 3112 0104 RAID controller 11 3 0 0 1002 4966 0300 Display controller 4 ACPI controller 9 The device on pci1 at 6.0, irq 11 is the buslogic scsi controller. So I made new boot floppies, which booted properly. The boot and initial probe shows the following: BIOS drive A: is disk0 BIOS drive C: is disk1 BIOS drive D: is disk2 BIOS drive E: is disk3 BIOS drive F: is disk4 (makes sense, given that the system has a floppy (A), two scsi disks (C,D or E,F) and two sata disks (ditto).) md0: Preloaded image md1: Malloc disk Using $PIR table, 12 entries at 0xc00fdea0 npx0: on motherboard npx0: INT 16 interface pcib0: on motherboard pci0: on pcib0 pci0: vendor=0x10de, dev=0x01eb at 0.1 pci0: vendor=0x10de, dev=0x01ee at 0.2 pci0: vendor=0x10de, dev=0x01ed at 0.3 pci0: vendor=0x10de, dev=0x01ec at 0.4 pci0: vendor=0x10de, dev=0x01ef at 0.5 isab0: on isab0 pci0: (vendor=10de, dev=0x0064) at 1.1 irq 4 ohci0: mem=0xe1085000-0xe1085fff irq 3 at device 2.0 on pci0 usb0: OHCI version 1.0, legacy support usb0: on ohci0 usb0: USB revision 1.0 uhub0: (0x10de) OHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1 uhub0: 3 ports with 3 removable, self powered ohci1: mem=0xe1082000-0xe1082fff irq 5 at device 2.1 on pci0 usb1: OHCI version 1.0, legacy support usb1: on ohci0 usb1: USB revision 1.0 uhub1: (0x10de) OHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1 uhub1: 3 ports with 3 removable, self powered pci0: at 2.2 irq 10 pci0: (vendor=0x10de, dev=0x0066) at 4.0 irq 5 pci0: (vendor=0x10de, dev=0x006b) at 5.0 irq 9 pci0: (vendor=0x10de, dev=0x006a) at 6.0 irq 11 pcib1: at 8.0 on pci0 pci1: on pcib1 pci1: (vendor=0x11ab, dev=0x4320) at 4.0 irq 5 pci1: (vendor=0x104b, dev=0x8130) at 6.0 irq 11 pci1: (vendor=0x1095, dev=0x3112) at 11.0 irq 11 atapci0: port 0xf000-0xf00f at device 9.0 on pci0 ata0: at 0x1f0 irq 14 on atapci0 ata1: at 0x170 irq 15 on atapci0 pcib2: at device 30.0 on pci0 pci3: at 0.0 irq 4 pci3: at 0.1 orm0:
