At : various times, neither, one, or both devices are plugged into the : computer. Depending upon when each is plugged in, the floppy : drive might become /dev/da0 and the flash reader/writer /dev/da1, : or vice versa. Is there a way to specify which should be which? Presently, there's no way to wire them. I'm working on some generic changes that would allow easier wiring, but haven't expanded them yet to include the bus specific code for usb. However, since umass uses cam there might be some code needed there as well (or not, I've not even looked yet). Warner
