System: NetBSD rumolt.teuto.de 1.2D NetBSD 1.2D (RUMOLT) #0: Mon Apr 7 13:05:03 MEST 1997 root@hwart.teuto.de:/usr/src/sys-isdn/arch/i386/compile/RUMOLT i386
Any i386 with secondary IDE controller and NE2000 compatible at IO 300

>Description:

I'm in the progress of creating a bootable CD-ROM with NetBSD-current
and build a GENERIC kernel for it (with ATAPI included). I tried booting
this kernel on my developement machine and it failed. It eroneously attached
wds0 and wds1, giving LOTS of errors when trying to find SCSI devices :-(
and mcd0, which prevented my network card to be found.

After removing wds and mcd from GENERIC I could boot and connect to the
network. The odds for finding a mcd device or a wds controller vs. the
hardware I happen to have are quite minimal, so I suggest removing them
if fixing is not possible. They should not prevent the installation of
NetBSD on quite common hardware!

For reference, here is the boot message of the GENERIC kernel with
mcd and wds removed:

>How-To-Repeat:
Build GENERIC kernel and boot on system with secondary IDE controller
and NE2000 compatible at IO 300

>Fix:

Fix probe routines of wds and mcd. Until then: remove both from GENERIC!
