Full Discussion: Change rootdev from SCSI to IDE

Can I have both IDE and SCSI Drives?
Mixing SCSI and IDE drives can be a problem if you want the root disk to be scsi. The short answer is that you can if your BIOS lets you select which drive to boot (if not, you would have to boot from a floppy). Assuming everything else is in place, "defbootstr hd=Sdsk" should work. See SCSI for a full discussion of this.

UK(4)							   BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual 						     UK(4)

NAME

     uk -- SCSI user-level driver

SYNOPSIS

     uk* at scsibus? target ? lun ?

DESCRIPTION

     The uk driver provides support for a process to address devices on the SCSI bus for which there is no configured driver.

     A SCSI adapter must also be separately configured into the system before this driver makes sense.

KERNEL CONFIGURATION

     If a count is given, that number of uk devices will be configured into the NetBSD kernel.

IOCTLS

     The uk driver has no ioctls of its own but rather acts as a medium for the generic scsi(4) ioctls.  These are described in <sys/scsiio.h>.

FILES

     /dev/uk[0-255]  unknown SCSI devices.

DIAGNOSTICS

     All scsi(4) debug ioctls work on uk devices.

SEE ALSO

     ioctl(2), cd(4), ch(4), scsi(4), sd(4), ss(4), st(4)

HISTORY

     The uk driver appeared in 386BSD 0.1.
