The following reply was made to PR misc/4013; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Ted Schundler <teds@edgemedia.net> To: freebsd-gnats-submit@freebsd.org, jeg@condor.circa.ufl.edu Cc: Subject: Re: misc/4013: boot floppy hangs if IDE ZIP Drive present Date: Sat, 24 Jan 1998 16:26:25 -0500 That seems to be true, but there's more to the problem than that. I also using FreeBSD 2.2.2 had that problem. I have an ATAPI CD-ROM drive as well on the second IDE controller, and with the ZIP drive connected, I can't mount the cd-rom or play CDs. And attempt at mounting the CD causes the computer to freeze up. And I can't mount the zip disk either. To use the CD-ROM I have to shut down, disconnect the zip drive, and reboot. And since I use the ZIP in Windows, when I want to that I then have to go inside and reconnect the cable. Workable, but annoying.
