I'd like to know, is it possible to use FreeBSD on on Intel DG9655SS
motherboard with PATA devices. It has 1 PATA and 2 SATA ports,
but the 6-stable kernel doesn't see any devices on PATA. It
doesn't see neither my disk, nor my DVD-writer. I tried with normal
mode, with legacy mode, doesn't matter. The kernel boots, and after it
don't now any disks.
Is that controller works in Current? Will it work in 6-stable in the
near future?
Soren?
It is supported in -current, backport planned but no time currently. You
could grap /sys/dev/ata/* from -current and use that in 6-stable, there
might be a few nits with infrastructure diffs but should be minimal IIRC.
