Try manually loading the kld with "kldload cd9660" and see if you get any errors. > A tape is in the drive. It moves the tape back and forth when > a tape is inserted and during boot up. Weird again. The drive activity might just be because the SCSI bus was reset. It might not mean the device was found by the kernel. In your dmesg output, do you get anything like: sa0 at ahc0 bus 0 target 3 lun 0 sa0: Removable Sequential Access SCSI-2 device sa0: 5.000MB/s transfers (5.000MHz, offset 15) (different make/model of course)? If not, then the system isn't finding the drive at all. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
