Well... I tried using wdc0, but when I use
IRQ 14 and 0x170 with wdc0 (the second
IDE Controler's IRQ and port), but it doesn't
feel like to detected it. Also, since I have an
IDE harddrive, I had to set the secondarey
IDE controller as IRQ14 and port 0x1f0.
Free BSD detected the secondary IDE
controller, but not the first one.  Is there
something that I missed?

Thank You in advance.
