The mainboard is an ABit BP6 with builtin Highpoint HPT366 ATA controller. The system works very nicely. I did some heavy testing in single user mode by moving several 300 Mb files around between the IDE disk and my other SCSI disk (which got me a sustained transfer rate of over 10 Mb/sec). Then I made world. Everything works great (softupdates enabled on all filesystems except "/"). If someone wants me to do some specific testing, let me know.
