Re: ordering of ports on Promise PDC40718 SATA300 controller

What determines the probing order of the ports/channels on the PDC40718
(Promise TX4 SATA300 controller)? The SATA ports are labeled "Port 1"
through "Port 4". I have a total of four of these cards, and all of
them repeatably probe out of order:

label reported in FreeBSD
------ -------------------
Port 1 <ATA channel 3>
Port 2 <ATA channel 1>
Port 3 <ATA channel 0>
Port 4 <ATA channel 2>

Has anyone else noticed this with these cards? What can I do to fix it?
I'm running both 6.0-RELEASE and RELENG_6_1 as of 2006-May-07.

I see that too but I don't care as long as it works :-).
