Just curious, having read the handbook section talking about freebsd going straight to the hardware and skipping the bios for disk numbering, why then, if I stick a sata disk in 'sata0' on the motherboard, does it come up as ad0, but if I add a second disk in 'sata1' or 'pata0', on the next boot, I have no ad0, but ad4 and ad6? This seems to be the case with every mobo I've owned in the last 2 years from a variety of mfr's. Is there a way around this? I don't care what it comes out as, as long as it stays put... Since I have the only fbsd system at work, I tend to format alot of funky drives for people, and it gets anoying having to swap fstab's every time...
