Yes, the ATA drivers chipset support part has been radically changed and updated in 5.1/current, the old 4.x ATA driver doesn't understand the newer SiS parts (and the support for some of the old is wrong as well)... -Søren ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I'm setting up a new machine, and none of the current *BSD's install on it. Linux works. The *BSD's choke during the device identification. Perhaps someone on this list knows why.
