(1) Probing procedure does not looking for the BIOS configuration. e.g., BIOS only enables primary IDE (ata0), but probing procedure ignores this information, and continues to configure the ata1. (2) disable command does not work well. "disable ata1" does not function correctly. ls command shows that ata1 is disabled (status changed from Yes to No). However, the installation procedure continues to configure the ata1 regardless ata1 status "Yes or No". >How-To-Repeat: disbale the secondary IDE from BIOS and try the latest installation floppies (kern.flp + mfsrot.flp). >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
