Subject:   INstalling using Promise ATA-100 card
Message-ID:  <3A5FE667.159CC100@w3rite.com>

The release notes for 4.0 say that the new ATA driver supports the
Promise PCI card providing "support for busmaster DMA transfers upto and
including the new ATA/66 mode."

I am attempting to install on a computer with the Promise ATA-100 card.
However, The installation process says there is no hard drive found. I
can boot in DOS and use fdisk to partition the drive so, I assume the
card and drive are working properly.

1) Has anyone had direct experience using the Promise ATA-100 card?

2) If so, what is the secret to getting FreeBSD to recognize it?
