Sorry about the previous post..
Anyway..
I have two IDE disks on the same controller, labelled wdc0 by the system.
At boot time I get the message
"wdc0:  extra interrupt"
twice..
once when the first partition of the first disk is being fsck-ed
and the next when the first partition of the second disk is being checked.
I got the same message when i disklabelled the second disk.
I also get the message:
ISA: strayintr 7
a few times while booting, occasionally.
What do these things mean?
intr 7 is configured for the printer port.

I  am running NetBSD 0.9 on a PC 486.

thankx
