[I hope -hackers is the appropriate forum for this, rather than -current}

    I'm trying to wire down drives on a news server with 14 disks and
two controllers.  I follow the LINT example, but I get a series of
warnings on config:

# config NEWS
Removing old directory ../../compile/NEWS:  Done.
config: line 44: ahc connected to non-controller
config: line 45: ahc connected to non-controller

Kernel build directory is ../../compile/NEWS


    The relevant lines in the config file:

  38>   controller      pci0
  39>   device          ahc0
  40>   device          ahc1
  41>   device          de0
  42>   options         PROBE_VERBOSE
  43>  
  44>   controller      scbus0 at ahc0
  45>   controller      scbus1 at ahc1
  46>   disk            sd0 at scbus0 target 0
  47>   disk            sd1 at scbus0 target 1
  48>   disk            sd2 at scbus0 target 2
  49>   disk            sd3 at scbus0 target 3
  50>   disk            sd4 at scbus0 target 4
  51>   disk            sd5 at scbus0 target 5
  52>   disk            sd6 at scbus0 target 6
  53>   disk            sd10 at scbus1 target 0
  54>   disk            sd11 at scbus1 target 1
  55>   disk            sd12 at scbus1 target 2
  56>   disk            sd13 at scbus1 target 3
  57>   disk            sd14 at scbus1 target 4
  58>   disk            sd15 at scbus1 target 5
  59>   disk            sd16 at scbus1 target 6

    However, if I change "device" in lines 39 and 40 to "controller",
config runs without any warnings.  This is contrary to the example in
the LINT file.  Omitting the device lines or specifying buses and
LUN's just product other combinations of errors.  Which is correct?
