Hi
Below is the output from dmesg.boot
I have some questions:

1. re: 802.11a
This system has been built in a mini ATX case and has a Proxim Harmony 802.11a 
Model 8150 PCI card on (I am on a boat - then intention is to be able to 
disconnect it from the ships network, lug it to a position in range of a 
wireless network and do a portupgrade as the need arises <chuckles>). Is this 
card recognized by freebsd. Is there a suitable driver? How do I set it up?

2. Uhicio [GIANT LOCKED] What does this mean?

3. (da1:umass-sim0:0:0:1): Unretryable error
What is the significance if any of these lines?

4. I want to use energy saving (mainly to protect the drive from unnecessary 
risk of damage in rough weather) to turn off the hard drive when access is 
not required. How do I do that?
