Subject:   problems with PCI RAID card showing up

For some reason, I am unable to find the drives (RAIDED with JBOD) connected
to this card.  The chipset for the card is VIA 6421 for SATA and 8235 for
IDE (It supports both), which, according to 'man ata' is supported.  Prior
to the FreeBSD boot Menu, I see text scroll across the screen that lists the
drives connected to the machine, and includes this RAID group as a listed
drive.  Not to mention that knoppix and acronis both see the drive as
listed.  Where are these drives located, and how do I get FreeBSD to see
them so I can mount them?
Here is a clipping from dmesg, where the card is referenced as being
present:
atapci0: <VIA 6421 SATA150 controller> port
0x9000-0x900f,0x9400-0x940f,0x9800-0x980f,0x9c00-0x9c0f,0xa000-0xa01f,0xa400-0xa4ff
irq 16 at device 8.0 on pci0
atapci1: <VIA 8235 UDMA133 controller> port
0x1f0-0x1f7,0x3f6,0x170-0x177,0x376,0xb800-0xb80f at device 17.1 on pci0
