I can boot a FreeBSD floppy. DOS has no problem with the device. I never see or hear FreeBSD access the device. I am running FreeBSD 3.0-CURRENT #0: Fri Jun 19 09:15:17 PDT 1998 The only IDE storage device is the floppy. There are 3 SCSI disks and a SCSI CD. The SCSI controller is a NCR PCI device. >From dmesg: fdc0 at 0x3f0-0x3f7 irq 6 drq 2 on isa fdc0: FIFO enabled, 8 bytes threshold fd0: 1.44MB 3.5in fd0: 1.44MB 3.5in With a floppy disk I can mount on another system, I get: # mount /dev/fd0a /mnt /dev/fd0 on /mnt: Input/output error and, dmesg has: fd0: recal failed ST0 70 cyl 0 fd0: recal failed ST0 70 cyl 0 fd0: recal failed ST0 70 cyl 0 fd0: recal failed ST0 70 cyl 0 fd0c: hard error reading fsbn 16 of 16-31 (No status) The LED on the drive does not light, and, drive is not accessed, the heads are not heard to move.
