I made sure my settings are correct, and Free BSD still couldn't find my secondary IDE controller (wdc1). Here is my result from running dmesg | grep wd: wdc0 at 0x1f0 -0x1f7 irq 14 on isa wdc0: unit 0 (wd0) : <WDC AC32500H> wd0: 2441MB (4999680 sector), 4960 cycls, 16 head, 63 S/T, 518 B/S wdc1 not found at 0x170 wd0s1: type 0xb, start 63, end = 3282047, size 3281958: ok wd0s2: type 0xa5, start 3282048, end = 4999679, size 1717632 : ok *BTW, I have 2 partitions. One for windows, and one for FBSD. Thank you in advance.
