Huh? So you mean this is not a generic IDE driver for OpenBSD then?

And I can see some of the controller chipset of the FakeRAIDs there,
but from http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq14.html, (Non-options section
of it 14.13) says there that OpenBSD doesn't use the FakeRAID's
built-in RAID functionality at all. It just uses the standard (or
should I say generic) software RAID driver.
I believe the FAQ is referring to unsupported or should I say exotic
SATA-RAID controller, I'm using LSI SATA-RAID and it reads from dmesg
as ami0 driver, but if you try to install CentOS-4 on this box, you'll
never see such native driver for this. And even if you software raid
this in CentOS, you'll still going have a such PITA just to boot strap
the box.
My 2 cents still goes to BSD.
