When using "Cable Select" or "Master" the IDE controller is detected but the drive is not. With the "Slave" setting, the controller is not detected at all. The same problem occurs with the FreeBSD-3.0-RELEASE boot floppy. >Fix: Ensure an IDE hard disk is attached to the system, or use SCSI CD-ROMS with SCSI hard disks. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the messagehome | help
