I just installed 5.0 again and put the drive back into my EPIA M.

5.0 is running fine right now. The only problem being that it seems
unable to get Ultra DMA to work. So I disable UDMA in my EPIA's BIOS and
FreeBSD obediently drops down to PIO mode.

So, it looks like 5.2.1 may have been my problem all along. Any ideas
whether this counts as a bug, or whether it's likely that FreeBSD has
effectively stopped supporting the EPIA boards?
