  Hi, I've installed FreeBSD 2.1R onto my second EIDE 1.6G HDD.  My
hardware is:

   Primary IDE controller, Master : 400M HDD  (Windows 95)
   Primary IDE controller, Slave  : none
   Secondary IDE controller, Master : 1.6G HDD (FreeBSD 2.1)
   Secondary IDE controller, Slave  : none

  After insallation, it rebooted and paniced.  It said "Cannot mount
root directory.."  It seemed there was confusion of wd1 with wd2.

  Boot thinks the second HDD is `wd1', while kernel probes it as
`wd2'.  My question is why kernel skips `wd1'?  Quoting from
GENERIC...

---8<------8<------8<---
controller	wdc0	at isa? port "IO_WD1" bio irq 14 vector wdintr
disk		wd0	at wdc0 drive 0
disk		wd1	at wdc0 drive 1
---8<------8<------8<---

  I wonder if wd1 is defined "disk wd1 at wdc? drive ?"  Isn't it
possible?
