If a BSD box doesn't "see" the third IDE, this seems to be in the BIOS is 
Enabled only Primary IDE Controller. You must enable both Channels on the 
controller.

Or is the IDE harddisk seen in BIOS post test? So you can try to change 
the position of "problematic" disk to another master/slave/channel and 
boot FBSD, but this is only stupid try :-)
