The default address is 220 for the sony with freebsd. The README.TXT on the sony install disk reads: -- when user specifies one of the following address, like a /p:xxx the device driver selects the only specidfied port address. Primary /p:1F0 Secondary /p:170 Tertiary /p:1E8 Quanternary /p:168 -- I only have the cdrom on the ide cable and no other ide devices on the machine. I've tried master and slave without success. Obviously i'm missing something here, or this new drive isn't supported. Probably i need to define another address? thanks. dave racette
