hi i have something strange machine i run freebsd on
i have both GUS classic and SB 16 PnP based on vibra16c chipset
i have recompiled kernel and included both configuration for
gus and sb into configuration file.
and actually i got some noise :)
but i have some questions
1. does freebsd (i run version 2.1.6) have any support for
plug and pray or i have to first run my machine under dos and
initialize damn sb and then boot freebsd ?
2. is there possibility to use both cards at once i mean one
playing module and another one playing another module ?
3. i have two module players s3mod and tracker
s3mod detects gus and plays module on it in native gus mode
but tracker beeps for a while and hmm... hangs :). is this 
result of my weird configuration ?

-----------------------------------------------
here is another stupid question
i cannot mount my atapi cd (its master on 2nd ide channel)
i have wcd0c in /dev but i cannot mount it cause it says
that device is not configured
it doesnt matter if there is cd inserted or not
while booting kernel waits a minute or more when scanning on 2nd
ide channel
MAKEDEV wcd0 does nothing :)
ATAPI cdrom is enabled in kernel 

so can any1 help me ?

here is my config
cx686p133+
asus t2p4 motherboard (triton 2)
32 mb ram
1.2 gig seagate ide drive 1st master
400mb conner ide drive 1st slave
