Since other have answered the rc.conf question, I give the "limited to 
UDMA33" a shot.
Are you using a UDMA133 cable? I cant recall the UDMA133 specs, but I 
know UDMA66 and 100 use a different cable then UDMA33. UDMA133 might 
use the same cable as 66 and 100, but Im certain a 33 cable would 
force the drive to be UDMA33 only, even if both drive and controller 
is capable of UDMA133.
It might also be a BIOS issue, check your settings.
