Yes, of course. Did you miss the vote? Besides, isn't 'haynie' an alias
for 'hardware'?

While we are talking about multiple controllers, I have a 2090a and a
new 2091.  I would like for my 2090a to not autoboot, as I would like
for it to be FFS partitioned without that extra, little, useless OFS
boot partition that I now have.

I understand that I need to pull my roms & put a copy of hddisk.device
in my expansion drawer to accomplish this. What is the latest version
of it, & how may one obtain a disk-based copy of it?

Thanks,
