Probing Devices

Hi, I am trying to install FreeBSD on the second hard disk of my windows PC. I have burned the 5.3-RELEASE-i386-disc1.iso onto a CD. When I restart the computer it reads the boot CDROM and then reports "Probing Device (This will take a while)". The sysinstall menu shows up but my keyboard doesn't

How the experts do it? (kernel dev)

I would like to setup a virtual machine for developing and debugging the kernel, perhaps with the possibility of debugging from the host os to the guest system. Which software would best suite this: vmware, bochs, qemu ? Keep in mind my host os will be FreeBSD 5.4. So whatever runs best on that.

iSCSI (revisited?)

All, I was wondering what people thought of iSCSI and FreeBSD. Is it a viable option for creating SANs? I want to move away from tape backups, and have numerous production FreeBSD machines that I need to back up data from. Any other ideas for a disk to disk backup solution that people have used

C programming question

I need some help understanding some C code. int (*if_ioctl) (struct ifnet *, int, caddr_t); int (*if_watchdog) (int); Can someone break down these declarations (if that's what they are)? Is this a form of typecasting? Thanks for your help.

My experience with cpufreq in -STABLE

Because I have a recent pentium4 and read about the new cpufreq interface in -5.4-STABLE I decided to try it. It was not a problem to fetch and compile the driver with information from the mailing list, my thanks goes to Bruno Ducrot. Unfortunately I did not found any information or software
