Hi, I've been a Linux user since 94. I'm wanting to move to FreeBSD for it's orgainization and package management setup. I'm so sick of lib problems and lack of source installs not updating the rpm database. Anyway, there is one thing I need to know before I move over. Can you use a parallel port backpack IDE harddrive in FreeBSD? In Linux, you load a parallel port driver and then a parallel port IDE driver to get a backpack harddrive to work. In the FreeBSD Hardware Faqs, this question had a * with no answers on it. Has that supported be added? Will it? Thanks for the help, Joseph __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
