Subject:   New Nforce2 variant doesn't recognize SATA as SATA

I just picked up a new ABIT NF7-S2G motherboard (NF2 MCP chip set with 
gigE and SATA/RAID).  I'm running 5.3 release on it.  The standard 
parallel ATA chipset returns a "known" id .  The SATA i/f  seems to be 
too new, and freebsd treats it like an unknown udma33 controller.  
There's no Marvel bridge on the mobo.  Is this a true SATA interface?  
Should I be able to get away with putting entries in the following? (i'm 
not concerned about the raid thing).  They curently work as udma33 disks.

thanks
jim

Just for completeness, they use the VIA vge driven chip.
