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? candy@fct.kgc.co.jp (Toshihiro Kanda)
