I've reposted this from freebsd-questions, and added some minor details.Hi Joshua.
Yesterday I bought and installed a Lite-ON SATA DVD Writer for my
computer. But FreeBSD fails to recognize it at all.
<snip>
FreeBSD doesn't support SATA ATAPI devices iirc.
Sorry
That's funny, I was able to install 6.2-release (both 32-bit and
64-bit) just fine from my SATA DVD drive a few weeks ago (LG Super
Multi DVD Writer 18x18x10 DVD +/-RW Dual-Layer Lightscribe.)
I had no idea FreeBSD didn't support it until I read this email. I
have since upgraded to 7.0-CURRENT (32-bit):
FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT #0: Sat Jul 14 21:22:14 MDT 2007
Now, from my dmesg (sorry, didn't keep one from 6.2...):
ata5: <ATA channel 3> on atapci1
ata5: SATA ATAPI devices not supported yet
ata5: [ITHREAD]
I know my BIOS setup is not the same now as it was when I did the
initial install, but AFAIK, the only difference is that I had to
disable the onboard RAID controller to install to the RAID array then
re-enable it to boot off of the array (funny, I know, but it was the
only way the BIOS would let me boot off of the SATA DVD drive at all!)

For posterity, the mobo was a S3000AHLX, which works OK, it'll be
nicer when I can get the SMBUS controller working... if I can, that
is.
I got my SATA DVD burner working by switching the SATA mode in BIOS
from AHCI to IDE, and it is now detected as IDE drive.. but of
course this depends on mobo/chipset/bios. Mine is Asus p5b with
Intel chipset.
