I've tried it Thanks to all that replied. As suggested by Martin and Aragon, it is a FreeBSD problem rather than a Soekris one. It has been reported as a bug in http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=131074. The workaround is to make sure that all the devices are connected at boot time rather than plussing them in later.
Apparently, FreeBSD 8 has a new USB stack that fixes a number of problems including this one. Maybe I'll try that soon. Thanks again, Graham _______________________________________________ Soekris-tech mailing list [email protected] http://lists.soekris.com/mailman/listinfo/soekris-tech
