I bought a new hard drive for my laptop, and I'd like to copy things
over from the existing drive. I have a pcmcia IDE adapter that I can
plug the new drive into. Win2k recognizes the drive, but it doesn't
seem to spin up under NetBSD 2.0beta. Here are the relevant dmesg
lines:
wdc2 at pcmcia1 function 0
atabus2 at wdc2 channel 0
I can remove and reinsert the card:
atabus2 detached
wdc2 detached
wdc2 at pcmcia0 function 0
atabus2 at wdc2 channel 0
My config file appears to have the right entries:
# PCMCIA IDE controllers
wdc* at pcmcia? function ?
# ATA (IDE) bus support
atabus* at ata?
wd* at atabus? drive ? flags 0x0000
Any suggestions? (The machine is a Thinkpad T21.)
