 Ok, but just to clarify, why do I get a message when I boot 2.2.5 saying
 that no driver has been assigned to storage devices ? Sorry, I can't
 retrieve the exact words. If I use 2.2.5, does FreeBSD make use of usual
 IDE throughput instead of Ultra DMA capabilities ?

 Sure, but it would help if you could reply to my question above before
 closing this PR.
 
 Thanks you for your help !
