I have a VIA 6421 in a Dell Optiplex PPro machine where the card, BIOS, and OpenBSD's bootloader detect two identical drives just fine. When I boot in to OpenBSD, only the first drive is seen.
I've searched the archives and found http://archives.neohapsis.com/archives/openbsd/2006-08/0597.html but it doesn't seem to apply in this case as the BIOS and bootloader both detect both drives. Worthy of note is that I am booting from sd0 which the BIOS configures as the third disk. I don't imagine this is the problem and unfortunately this BIOS is too old to change that. I would be grateful for any suggestions? Output of the bootloader and a dmesg are included below. Thanks in advance. -Dan Loading... probing: pc0 com0 com1 apm mem[640k 159M a20=on] disk: fd0 hd0+ hd1+* hd2 >> OpenBSD/i386 BOOT 2.10 boot> booting hd2a:/bsd: 5839872+912272 [52+283888+268942]=0x6f78b8 entry point at 0x200120 [ using 553256 bytes of bsd ELF symbol table ] Copyright (c) 1982, 1986, 1989, 1991, 1993 The Regents of the University of California.
