So am I. I think the problem is that the wd.c based DMA stuff doesn't support ultra-DMA, and unless you tell your BIOS to no do ultra-DMA it will barf up a printf for each transfer to the device. How to write things like this in a README file has repeatedly been proven to be beyond my capabilities. -- Poul-Henning Kamp FreeBSD coreteam member [email protected] "Real hackers run -current on their laptop."
