FBSD detects them as ad0, acd0 and ad3, respectively. If I change the drive jumpers to make the HDD the secondary master and the CDROM the secondary slave, is it correct to assume that FBSD will detect them as ad1 and acd0? This configuration will break /etc/fstab, as well as anything else that references the HDD on the secondary IDE channel. Other than /etc/fstab and personal files, what should I edit to reflect the hardware changes? Thanks, Charles Got a computer with idle CPU time?
