  Though I have tested Dell PE750 with SATA RAID1(without SCSI) using
FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE-p8, the installer could not find the disk :-(. 

  But Ushine Hiroyuki has reported he can boot with some patch derived
from OpenBSD aac code. 

	http://home.jp.freebsd.org/cgi-bin/showmail/FreeBSD-users-jp/79958

This page is written in Japanese, but you can see the patch. He said
that he will send-pr if he can install with the patched kernel.


p.s. I have also tried IBM xSeries 306 with SATA using FreeBSD
5.2.1-RELEASE-p8 and can boot with stock kernel. But when enabling RAID1,
I could not boot, too :-(.
