Well, I am not sure if you really meant ATA_CAM and not ATAPICAM? But in case you meant it, for people who do not use SATA-capable hardware, ATA_CAM is useful. This laptop may be no longer be the most recent model these days, but runs -CURRENT just fine most of the time. Also, if I remember correctly, for people with a bit more recent controllers ATA_CAM offers other advantages, but those do not affect me. So, for me ATA_CAM is just a better version of the ata(4) driver... -- Regards: Szilveszter ADAM Budapest Hungary _______________________________________________ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
