In a few days time the wd driver will be retired from FreeBSDs i386 architecture. Users, please: Update your kernel config file (see GENERIC) Update your /etc/fstab (use /dev/ad* instead of /dev/wd* or /dev/rwd* Copy MAKEDEV from src/etc/MAKEDEV to /dev/MAKEDEV and make all the ad* disk devices you need for your system. Unfortunately current is broken right now, so I can't point you at a snapshot to reinstall from should you prefer that option, but I'm sure that current.freebsd.org will be able to deliver one RSN. PC98: I would like to discuss with the PC98 responsible commmitters what the prospects for wd vs ata in PC98 are, please get in touch with me.
