I've got a Promise FastTrak100 TX2 running on -STABLE as of about 2 
weeks ago and FreeBSD picks it up fine. I might add however that I did 
have problems trying to install 4.6-REL onto it on one machine, but 
moving the card to a different machine to install and make world solved 
that hassle.

 From dmesg:
