The physical layout is that it is device 1 on ide 0, the Maxtor HD is device 0. On ide chain 1 I have 2 CDs, one for reading and one for burning. When I review the dmesg, I find the following: wdc0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7 irq 14 on isa wdc0: unit 0 (wd0): wd0: 8709MB (17836560 sectors), 17695 cyls, 16 heads, 63 S/T, 512 B/S wdc0: unit 1 (atapi): , removable, intr, iordis wdc1 at 0x170-0x177 irq 15 on isa wdc1: unit 0 (atapi): , removable, intr, dma, iordis acd1: drive speed 6875KB/sec, 128KB cache acd1: supported read types: CD-R, CD-RW, CD-DA, packet track acd1: Audio: play, 255 volume levels acd1: Mechanism: ejectable tray acd1: Medium: no/blank disc inside, unlocked wdc1: unit 1 (atapi): , removable, accel, dma, iordis acd2: drive speed 4134KB/sec, 1024KB cache acd2: supported read types: CD-R, CD-RW, CD-DA, packet track acd2: supported write types: CD-R, CD-RW, test write acd2: Audio: play, 256 volume levels acd2: Mechanism: ejectable tray acd2: Medium: no/blank disc inside, unlocked My / is mounted at /dev/wd0s3e, and the cdroms at /dev/acd1c and /dev/acd2c respectively. I have tried to mount the zip drive as /dev/wd1s4 to /zip. I have no luck with that. I have noticed activity on the zip drive when trying to mount /dev/acd0 (taking shots in the dark, keep your heads down). I know this question has been beat into the ground, but I cannot seem to make this infernal device work. A little help is greatly appreciated. And if I should find I am infernal in the skull, that may not really come to me as a surprise. ;-) Thanks much for the help. -- Bob Collins To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
