I consider this a showstopper since I could boot from CD but sysinstall
could not see the DVD drives, thus no CD install. I had to mount the CD in
another machine and do a NFS install.
SATA optical drives are not supported, neither is your brand new gaming sound
card. This is far from being a show stopper. Please consult the hardware
notes in the future before complaining on the lists.
The Hardware Notes do not mention SATA at all except for RAID controllers.
Just FYI, We've been looking at integrating the supported hardware info
from the ata(4) manual page into the hardware notes. This *should* at
least kill some of the confusion that always surrounds what SATA/ATA
stuff we support and what we don't.
