I have an old HP T-1000 internal tape drive I want to install in a spare
FreeBSD server.  This device uses the floppy controller.  I am running
4.2-STABLE.  When I inspected the manual for configuring QIC-40/80 drives, I
noticed the configuration for the kernel has changed.  The manual refers
says to configure the device using the following line in my config file:

controller  fdc0  at isa? port "IO_FD1" bio irq 6 drq 2 flags 0x1 vector
fdintr

Where as the config file refers to it using the "device" syntax:

device          fdc0    at isa? port IO_FD1 irq 6 drq 2

I guess it should be OK to use the manual's line, but substitute "device"
for "controller"?  

device fdc0    at isa? port IO_FD1 irq 6 drq 2 flags 0x1 vector fdintr

Is this correct?

Many Thanks,

                Gene Harris
