Er - have you seen man atacontrol in RELENG_4 lately ? I will
quote the most pertinent extract:
Allthough the ATA driver allows for creating an ATA RAID on
disks on any controller, there are restrictions. It is only pos�
sible to boot on an array if its either located on a "real" ATA
RAID controller like the Promise or Highpoint controllers, or if
the RAID declared is of RAID1 or SPAN type, in case of a SPAN
the partition to boot must reside on the first disk in the SPAN
So the answer is - yes you can.
