I attempted to download -current's kernel source, but it doesn't want to compile with my sys/i386/config/CONFIGFILE... What am I going to need to do in order to get to use the drive? I really would rather use it on a -STABLE system even if I then apply a patch to that (potentially rendering it less stable) I need to use the drive as a spool to a tape drive on a machine doing the system backups and would rather it was a reliable machine :-) Apologies again for my relative lack of knowledge with regards using FreeBSD.
