Re: nForce 430i doesn't recognise SATA devices

This is so frustrating... I specifically bought a Core2 Quad Core to
do some heavy number crunching. An Asus P5K WS is on backorder and will
arrive in two weeks. The P5N-E was 'cheapest' one they had on stock.
Lately I'm a bit unlucky with new hardware and FreeBSD compatibility.

I tried hacking the ACPI configuration (which seems quite strange on that
board), but to no avail. If you find something, let me know!

Will do.

SATA ports are detected SATA devices do not get probed or detected.
It complains about timeouts and the device name is "unknown".
FreeBSD 6.3RC1 doesn't work either.

The relevant portions of the dmesg are below (the JMicron controller
is only for an external ESATA port):

Any help appreciated.
