We have an Adaptec 1742b controller with a Hitachi 1750s external
CD-ROM drive.

The adapter is set as	device 7 (factory)
			dma channel 5 (factory, 386BSD suggested)
			port 330h (factory, 386BSD suggested)
			interrupt channel 11 (factory, 386BSD suggested)

the kernel has (pertinent?) config lines:

...
controller	aha0	at isa? port "IO_AHA0" bio irq 11 drq 5 vector uhaintr
...
device		cd0

now I have tried to change the above to:

device		cd0	at aha0 drive 0

then, after no success,

pseudo-device	isofs

when I use the following line I get the error message:

mount -r -t /dev/cd0a /mnt
"...device not configured"

any help would GREATLY be appreciated.
