No wonder > the ATAPI 2.1-SNAP testers have been having problems! :-( Other unfortunate differences between the -stable and -current GENERICs: 1. -current has better comments 2. -current has less quoting (-stable probably can't be improved here because -current probably depends on the new options processing). 3. -current has FAILSAFE. FAILSAFE is only used in ncr.c in -current. Some old Toshiba disks fail unsafely without it. 4. -current doesn't have ahc1. I'm not sure if stable has enough ahc config stuff for ahc1 to be necessary or harmful. 5. sio3 is soft-disabled in -current. 6. psm0 is hard-disabled (useless without a kernel rebuild) in -stable. 7. Some devices are in -stable but not in GENERIC. These should at least be in the file, commented out. 8. -stable doesn't have KTRACE. Bruce
