Both machines were installed from the same CD over old Windows systems. They were installed within a few days of each other. loader.conf only has "console=comconsole". Reading through the handbook page above it indicates that atapicam needs to be loaded in /boot/loader.conf. I'll add that to both machines. Makes me wonder why the one worked. kldstat showed it was not loaded._______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
