Søren,


Unfortunately, the first 2 drives were wiped out from having been 
tested... installed Windows/XP, and it all worked fine.   The 
motherboard I have is a SOYO Dragon Platinum Edition which has the 
Silicon Image controller.

I want to be sure what the problem is before I begin installing 
FreeBSD-5.2 again.

I read in some release notes there were some issues with SATA, but I'm 
not certain if those issues still apply to the -CURRENT codebase.


Thanks.
Forrest

Please at least provide the output from dmesg so I have a chance to see 
what kind of HW we are talking about. A dmesg from a working kernel 
would be real handy as well...
