There'll probably be a 'msdos' in there somewhere?

Hmm, It also supports RapIDE (but not CDROMs on RapIDE, as far as I
can work out).

Hmmm, speaking of which, I'm still playing around with my ATAPI zip
drive, which currently resides on the internal interface. In the
bootup messages it is recognised, but doesn't get assigned to a device
- it says something like 'type 1 removable - not configured'.

Is this because there's not yet enough ATAPI support in NetBSD (1.3
Release), or do I need to do something to makedev?

(Makes note: less 'Hmmmmm's in future...)

Cheers,
