I usually start from GENERIC.hints and cut out the stuff I don't need. Since ACPI/PnPBIOS enumerates most built in devices anyways, it usually ends up being a short list unless you have some actual ISA cards. Mine is usually something like: # $FreeBSD: src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC.hints,v 1.11 2002/12/05 22:49:47 jhb Exp $ hint.fd.0.at="fdc0" hint.fd.0.drive="0" hint.sc.0.at="isa" hint.sc.0.flags="0x100" hint.sio.0.at="isa" hint.sio.0.port="0x3F8" hint.sio.0.flags="0x10" hint.sio.0.irq="4" The fd0 hints shouldn't even be needed anymore now on ACPI systems with the new fdc(4) driver and the sio0 ones are only there so I can set the flags for a serial console. -- John Baldwin <jhb_at_FreeBSD.org> <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve" = http://www.FreeBSD.orgReceived on Tue Sep 28 2004 - 15:26:38 UTC
