I thought SATA did away with the master/slave ugliness of PATA.
Thinking maybe this was misleading output from FreeBSD, I did some

Hi list,
I currently have a FreeBSD machine that acts as a router and
fileserver for my local home network. I'm hoping to set up a wireless

Thanks everyone, based on the info I am returning the nvidia card and
getting an R4xx instead (found an X850 for under $80 still sold; seems to be

Is this the way it works on everyone else's system, or do I need to configure
