Got some trouble. The Sysinstall program of FreeBSD 8.0 release does
not define SATA hard drives. Can`t create slices.
But that machine works correctly by Windows.
See attached dmesg file.
The hard disks are seen by the system as classic PATA disks, operating
in PIO4 mode, which probably indicates your BIOS is set to run the
controller in "Emulation" mode. sysinstall should, I would think, see
these disks since the kernel does.

I've never seen the vendor string "GENERIC ATA controller" before. What exact motherboard or SATA controller card is this? Can you provide a
link to it?
