Weird.

The contents of /dev after I pick the Live CD are almost identical to what they were with PCBSD. There's an additional da4a that I guess has to do with the memstick. I don't really see any other differences. I tried the same devfs commands as above and the results are the same as above. I may try to install from the memstick, but would then want to figure out how to get a desktop going. Thanks. -- Brian Ebenezer Enterprises http://webEbenezer.net
