I'm : running -STABLE of June 20, and don't want to update because of some : MFCd sound code that screws up my NeoMagic 256AV. Sure. I think that all you need is the following: src/sys/kern/subr_disk.c revision 1.20.2.1 date: 2000/07/11 06:02:49; author: imp; state: Exp; lines: +29 -25 MFC: 1.29 fixes the disk going away and then coming back problem See the 1.29 log message for the gorry details. These changes are very clean, at least wrt interdependence on other things. The bug was a fun one to find. I got Timing Solutions to invest about a week of my time (less interruptions) to find and kill this problem. It had bit me and others at Timing Solutions enough to make this cost effective. We use CF a lot around here and this bug was a show stopper for us to install pccard readers on all the desktops so that anybody can create their own CF for whatever project they are working on.... I'm still a little burned out from fighting it, and it was about a month ago! BTW, a big thanks to phk for reviewing the bug, telling me I was nuts a few times in the right way and porting it to -current before I got to it.
