Alexander,

Thanks, that seemed to clear the problem up, no troubles through half
a dozen or more reboots.

Is disabling MSI likely to have any side effects on, for example,
performance or reliability?  Is there any point to pursuing this as a
FreeBSD problem, since I didn't have any issues under the old ATA
system?  I'm happy to help troubleshoot this if anyone thinks it's
worth looking into.

thanks,
Jeff
