I was trying to install freebsd in a computer with two cdroms without success.. in the first Ide port I have a hard dis (master), in the second ide port I have a cdr (master) and a cdrom(slave)... but when I try to install freebsd from the freebsd cd... the installation program freeze in the probing device section.. What can I do?Does Freebsd support two cd units ok, here is my hardware specification.. the second port is in the motherboard and I have connected both cd units in this port... both units share irq 15 and port 0x170... Windows can use this shared irq and detect both units... but what about freebsd... Greg Lehey <grog@lemis.com> told me that he has seven units: === root@freebie (/dev/ttyp6) /var/backup 143 -> df Filesystem 1024-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/wd0s1a 30206 27114 676 98% / /dev/wd0s1e 1152422 460760 599470 43% /usr /dev/wd2s1e 6051541 4799021 768397 86% /T mfs:23 31391 502 28378 2% /tmp /dev/sd0h 2047732 1391591 492323 74% /home /dev/sd1e 3866510 1978168 1579022 56% /S procfs 4 4 0 100% /proc /dev/cd0a 647556 647556 0 100% /cdrom/1 /dev/cd1a 600578 600578 0 100% /cdrom/2 /dev/cd6a 64730 64730 0 100% /cdrom/7 /dev/cd5a 38474 38474 0 100% /cdrom/6 mfs:27911 198399 2 182526 0% /home/var/tmp /dev/cd2a 653044 653044 0 100% /cdrom/3 /dev/cd3a 641716 641716 0 100% /cdrom/4 /dev/cd4a 530578 530578 0 100% /cdrom/5 I think that these units are scsi.. but what about ide ones... thanks for help... +-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+ | | GUSTAVO LOZANO IBARRA | | ,,, | .-~ THE UNIX WIZARD ~-. | | .#' `, , . ,,, +-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+ | ##. ,# #: .# $# ` |glozano@academ02.maz.itesm.mx| | '#:.,#: '# .##.
