Hi Patrick,

I've been experiencing the same problem. There was a PR, a while ago:

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=3D43345

But now that I've installed -CURRENT, there no problem... with the ATA
controller at least :)

But I know that even 5.0-p4 does not allow me to boot (I have a shuttle
barebone with a SiS 651 chipset).

Like you, I would like a solution to fix this in a RELENG branch of
FreeBSD but I am sorry to say I can't contribute myself (no time and
probably not enough competence...).

Anyway, have a look at the PR, maybe it's a good start if you can't afford
-CURRENT.

Regards,

Herv=E9
