Has anyone got this motherboard to work with FreeBSD ? I tried fiddling with the BIOS but no matter what, 6.2Beta does not see the ad0 (PATA drive) nor ad4 (SATA drive)... It never sees the drive, although it does see the controller as a generic IDE controller

The intel product code is BOXDG965SSCK

Does this motherboard work in 7.x ?
Dont know that exact board,but the Gigabyte 965P- DS3 I've got here with the same chipset works fine.
The SATA ports on the ICH8 are fully supported and should work on any board.
However the ICH8 has *no* PATA port, so the PATA port on mine is a JMicron chip which we support including its extra 2 SATA ports.
Some Intel boards use Marvell chips that should work as generic but early reports seems to indicate that is not the case.
