HELP! This is really going to screw me The SCSI devices are shown by lsdev here. Do you just need more information? Another problem is that devconf is only supposed to handle devices that need to be config(8)ed. For devices like multiport serial cards where the individual serial ports don't need to be config(8)ed, the devconf info might not show any of the ports. Bruce
