-- --------------------
|

|
|
We have `underlined' text which represents user input with `-' symbols
|
|
throughout this document to differentiate it from the machine output.
|
|
|
|
1. Default (GENERIC) Configuration
|
|
-- -------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The following table contains a list of all of the devices that are
|
|
present in the GENERIC kernel. This is the essential part of the
|
|
operating system that is placed in your root partition during the
|
|
installation process. A compressed version of the GENERIC kernel is
|
|
also used on the installation floppy diskette and DOS boot image.
|
|
|
|
The table describes the various parameters used by the driver to
|
|
communicate with the hardware in your system. There are four
|
|
parameters in the table, though not all are used by each and every
|
|
device:
|
|
|
|
Port The starting I/O port used by the device, shown in hexadecimal.
|
|
|
|
IOMem The lowest (or starting) memory address used by the device,
|
|
also shown in hexadecimal.
|
|
|
|
IRQ The interrupt the device uses to alert the driver to an event,
|
|
given in decimal.
|
|
|
|
DRQ The DMA (direct memory access) channel the device uses to move
|
|
data to and from main memory, also given in decimal.
|
|
|
|
If an entry in the table has `n/a' for a value then it means that the
|
|
parameter in question does not apply to that device. A value of `dyn'
|
|
means that the correct value should be determined automatically by the
|
|
kernel when the system boots and that you don't need to worry about
|
|
it.
|
|
|
|
If an entry is marked with an *, it means that support is currently
|
|
not available for it but should be back as soon as someone converts
|
|
the driver to work within the new 3.0 framework.

If the hardware in your computer is not set to the same settings as
|
|
those shown in the table and the item in conflict is not marked 'dyn',
|
|
you will have to either reconfigure your hardware or use UserConfig
|
|
to reconfigure the kernel to match the way your hardware is currently set
|
|
(see the next section).
|
|
|
|
If the settings do not match, the kernel may be unable to locate
|
|
or reliably access the devices in your system.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Using UserConfig to change FreeBSD kernel settings
|
|
-- --------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The FreeBSD kernel on the install floppy contains drivers for every
|
|
piece of hardware that could conceivably be used to install the rest
|
|
of the system with. Unfortunately, PC hardware being what it is, some
|
|
of these devices can be difficult to detect accurately, and for some,
|
|
the process of detecting another can cause irreversible confusion.
|
|
|
|
To make this process easier, FreeBSD provides UserConfig. With this
|
|
UserConfig, the user can configure and disable device drivers before
|
|
the kernel is loaded, avoiding potential conflicts, and eliminating
|
|
the need to reconfigure hardware to suit the default driver settings.
|
|
|
|
Once FreeBSD is installed, it will remember the changes made using
|
|
UserConfig, so that they only need be made once.
|
|
|
|
It is important to disable drivers that are not relevant to a system
|
|
in order to minimize the possibility of interference, which can cause
|
|
problems that are difficult to track down.
|
|
|
|
UserConfig features a command line interface for users with serial
|
|
consoles or a need to type commands, and a full screen 'visual'
|
|
interface, which provides point-and-shoot configuration functionality.
|
|
|
|
Here is a sample UserConfig screen shot in 'visual' mode:
|
|
|

IO Port address (Hexadecimal, 0x1-0x2000)
|
|
[TAB] Change fields [Q] Save device parameters
|
|
|
|
|
|
The screen is divided into four sections :
|
|
|
|
- Active Drivers. Listed here are the device drivers that are currently
|
|
enabled, and their basic parameters.
|
|
- Inactive Drivers. These drivers are present, but are disabled.
|
|
- Parameter edit field. This area is used for editing driver parameters.
|
|
- Help area. Keystroke help is displayed here.
|
|
|
|
One of the Active and Inactive lists is always in use, and the current
|
|
entry in the list will be shown with a highlight bar. If there are
|
|
more entries in a list than can be shown, it will scroll. The bar can
|
|
be moved up and down using the cursor keys, and moved between lists
|
|
with the TAB key.
|
|
|
|
Drivers in the Active list may be marked "CONF". This indicates that
|
|
one or more of their parameters conflicts with another device, and
|
|
indicates a potential for problems. The total number of conflicts is
|
|
displayed at the top of the screen.
|
|
|
|
As a general rule, conflicts should be avoided, either by disabling
|
|
conflicting devices that are not present in the system, or by altering
|
|
their configuration so that they match the installed hardware.
|
|
|
|
In the list areas, drivers are grouped by their basic function.
|
|
Groups can be 'Collapsed' to simplify the display (this is the default
|
|
state for all groups). If a group is collapsed, it will be shown with
|
|
'(Collapsed)' in the list, as above. To Expand a Collapsed group,
|
|
position the highlight bar over the group heading and press Enter. To
|
|
Collapse it again, repeat the process.
|
|
|
|
When a device driver in the Active list is highlighted, its full
|
|
parameters are displayed in the Parameter edit area. Note that not
|
|
all drivers use all possible parameters, and some hardware supported
|
|
by drivers may not use all the parameters the driver supports.
|
|
|
|
To disable a driver, go to the Active list, Expand the group it is in,
|
|
highlight the driver and press Del. The driver will move to its group
|
|
in the Inactive list. (If the group is collapsed or off the screen,
|
|
you may not see the driver in its new location.)
|
|
|
|
To enable a driver, go to the Inactive list, Expand the group it is
|
|
in, highlight the driver and press Enter. The highlight will move to
|
|
the Active list, and the driver you have just enabled will be
|
|
highlighted, ready to be configured.
|
|
|
|
To configure a driver, go to the Active list, Expand the group it is
|
|
in, highlight the driver and press Enter. The cursor will move to the
|
|
Parameter edit area, and the device's parameters may be edited.
|
|
|
|
While editing parameters, the TAB and cursor keys can be used to move
|
|
between fields. Most numeric values (except IRQ) are entered in
|
|
hexadecimal, as indicated by the '0x' at the beginning of the field.
|
|
The allowable values for a given field are show in the Key Help area
|
|
when the field is active.
|
|
|
|
To finish configuring a driver, press 'Q'.
|
|
|
|
Note that PCI and EISA devices can be probed reliably, therefore they
|
|
are not shown in the table above nor can their settings be changed
|
|
using UserConfig. PCI drivers may be seen in the "PCI Devices" section
|
|
in the Active Devices list, if you wish to check for their presence.
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. LINT - other possible configurations
|
|
-- ------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The following drivers are not in the GENERIC kernel but remain
|
|
available to those who do not mind compiling a custom kernel (see
|
|
section 6 of FreeBSD.FAQ). The LINT configuration file
|
|
(/sys/i386/conf/LINT) also contains prototype entries for just about
|
|
every device supported by FreeBSD and is a good general reference.
|
|
|
|
The device names and a short description of each are listed below. The port
|
|
numbers, etc, are not meaningful here since you will need to compile a
|
|
custom kernel to gain access to these devices anyway and can thus
|
|
adjust the addresses to match the hardware in your computer in the process.
|
|
The LINT file contains prototype entries for all of the below which you
|
|
can easily cut-and-paste into your own file (or simply copy LINT and edit
|
|
