Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Can anybody explain what the practical impact of not enabling ATA_STATIC_IDS in the kernel is? E.g., with static ids I have my / on ad4s1a. If I don't enable ATA_STATIC_IDS, when I go to reboot the system, do I get an unbootable system, or one that just can't fsck or mount anything once it boots? (I'd guess the answer is "yes"...) -- Alan Eldridge "Dave's not here, man." To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
