I have currently 6 ide devices working correctly. First I have 4 EIDE disks under the control of onboard ide controllers and third ide controller is on the Gravis Ultrasound PnP board. Under the third controller is atapi cdrom and one WD 850MB disk. You must define the third controller and disks under those in your kernel config file _and_ define this controller in the isa.h file (/usr/src/sys/i386/isa/isa.h). My third controller sits under the IRQ line 10 and I/O 0x3e8/0x3ee. Those parameters are assingned my PnP BIOS. You must know these parameters exactly.
