It is awkward that dynamically and/or statically attaching SCSI hard drive and USB hard drive to the system will have different da IDs. For example, boot system with a SCSI drive (SCSI = 1), will have a da0 for this SCSI drive. Then plugging in a USB hard drive, which will be configured as da1. If boot system with both drives online, system will boot from SCSI drive fine till mounting root point. It fails because USB drive has da0 and SCSI drive has da1. Is there anyway to configure the system to have fixed da ID for SCSI drive or even for USB drive regardless if they are dynamically/statically attached to the system? -Jin
