In NetBSD 1.3-i386 is there a way to configure in the panasonic cdrom off
of the sb16 controller. The cdrom isn't atapi (in my opinion) because I
cannot just hang it off of an IDE controller and it will work. In all my
experiences it must hang off the sb16. Nonetheless I want to see if I can
add the device into the kernel. It didn't seem to be found with the
GENERIC configuration under /usr/src/sys/arch/i386/conf. Is there an
undocumented device or someway to configure cd0 or the mitsumi cdrom to
detect mine? The sb16 is not a PnP card, but rather the older one that
must be set with jumpers. The base io of the card is 0x220,
irq5,ldma=1,hdma=5. (If that helps anyone.) Any thoughts?
Btw, I gave up for the moment about the mounting of the fat32 partitions
problem. Until I can get a backup of the win95 side I don't want to mess
with the disklabel of the drive.
