At the ``boot:'' prompt do a ``-c'', then at the ``config>'' prompt do a ``irq mcd0 5'', then a ``quit''. Look in the documents for the stuff about hardware configuration and what FreeBSD's defaults are. We can't autodetect IRQ's so some assumptions are made here about what is where. The boot -c option is there so you can fix our sometimes incorrect assumptions. Or, you can move your Mitsumi CDRom to IRQ10 if nothing is using that IRQ. > thanks -- Rod Grimes rgrimes@gndrsh.aac.dev.com Accurate Automation Company Custom computers for FreeBSD
