For an auto-probing device, it uses linker sets (see <sys/kernel.h>) to get into a list that is created at link time. For an ISA device, it has to be added to the config file, which writes out a list of probes. The actual calls to probe the various buses are in src/sys/i386/i386/autoconf.c - they are the calls to isa_configure(), pci_configure() etc. Eivind.
