It's described in /sys/conf/NOTES. As an example (assuming you're talking about FreeBSD 5.x/6.0 here): device ahc device sym hint.scbus.0.at="ahc0" hint.da.0.at="scbus0" hint.da.0.target="0" hint.da.0.unit="0" This ensures that the logical bus 'scbus0' is associated with the first ahc controller found, and that da0 is associated with target,lun 0,0 on scbus0. The wiring syntax works both compiled into the kernel via the normal kernel config file, or by inserting it into /boot/device.hints. Scott
