Great job bro. *laughs* Well, I was talking to these guys, but they have been very receptive, especially after I told them that we explicitely don't blame ATA problems on their controller as per Microsoft and Linux but on the disks, which I can testify.

But for now I am going to do my end of the `bargain' and fix HPT's entries on our website and such. =) -- Jeroen Ruigrok vd Werven/Asmodai asmodai@[wxs.nl|bart.nl|freebsd.org] Documentation nutter/C-rated Coder BSD: Technical excellence at its best The BSD Programmer's Documentation Project Necessity relieves us of the ordeal of choice...
