It's only just now been fixed. The convention on the i386 platform is to pack unit numbers; the 'wd' driver was our sole exception (the BIOS and the SCSI code both pack unit numbers). Since it's now consistent with everything else, it should stay as-is. Wiring ATAPI units down is of limited utility, but should probably be supported for people that like those silly removable drive sleds. -- \\ Sometimes you're ahead, \\ Mike Smith \\ sometimes you're behind. \\ m...@smith.net.au \\ The race is long, and in the \\ msm...@freebsd.org \\ end it's only with yourself. \\ msm...@cdrom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majord...@freebsd.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
