FreeBSD 5.2.1; Sun/Cobalt LX50; GENERIC kernel Greetings, The darned LX50 is wired with the first SCSI bus out the back, and the second toward the builtin drives. So, upon adding an external drive, the internal drives all renumber with the generic kernel+device hints. I thought adding a line to /boot/device.hints might work, so reading /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/gethints.awk for clues, I added: hint.da.0.at="ahc1" But that didn't have a noticeable effect. Looking again, I probably asked too much from that interface, as I see no examples with ctlr name+numbers to the right of the =. So, how to fix device 0 lun 0 on ahc 1 to be da0? Alternatively how to get /devfs to incorporate the ctlr number in the /dev entry, like: dac1s1a? Thanks, -sam
