I am certain there is a total of one (1) ata controllers in the box; I put
it in there myself. It does NOT appear as ata0 and ata1, it appears as
ata2 and ata3. Like I said before, there is no onboard ata controller.

Note how the one and only ide disk that this box boots from is ad4:
Note how the ata driver bogusly claims there are controllers at ata0 &
ata1 and that the irqs overlap with previously probed devices:

...

ps. I am only editting out non-relevent stuff from the above dmesg.boot
file. I can send the entire thing if requested.
