There isn't an architectural problem - that's what I fixed, but I only have two Cyclades units here, so I've not been able to test a configuration of 3 or more. It _should_ work, however. Do the probe messages match the actual board configuration? Is it possible that there is an IRQ conflict in your machine with irq15 (which is often assigned to a secondary IDE bus, for example)? -DG David Greenman Core-team/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project
