I have only been able to setup a -current box by last week (and this one doesn't even want to recognize the floppy controller when ACPI is used, but at least the non-ACPI part seems to work), but I have yet to follow all of your discussion and patches... I've noticed more (longer-standing) brokeness in the floppy driver as well: the automatic creation of cloned devices stopped working some time before FreeBSD 5.2. I also intend to fix that. -- cheers, J"org .-.-. --... ...-- -.. .
