Thanks! This enables full use of the on-board ATA on Asus A7N8X Deluxe.

Before:
atapci0: <Generic PCI ATA controller> port 0xf000-0xf00f at device 9.0 on pci0
ata0: at 0x1f0 irq 14 on atapci0
ata1: at 0x170 irq 15 on atapci0
...
ad0: 78167MB <Maxtor 4D080H4> [158816/16/63] at ata0-master BIOSDMA
ad1: 78167MB <Maxtor 4D080H4> [158816/16/63] at ata0-slave WDMA2

..when the BIOS was not told about the existence of the disks. If the BIOS
knew about them, booting would just stop here.

After:
atapci0: <nVidia nForce ATA133 controller> port 0xf000-0xf00f at device 9.0 on pci0
ata0: at 0x1f0 irq 14 on atapci0
ata1: at 0x170 irq 15 on atapci0
...
ad0: 78167MB <Maxtor 4D080H4> [158816/16/63] at ata0-master UDMA100
ad1: 78167MB <Maxtor 4D080H4> [158816/16/63] at ata0-slave UDMA100

Performance increase was quite noticeable and I haven't encountered any
trouble with it so far (3 days of 24/7 lightweight use).

Regards,
 MSH
