I may temporarily downgrade back to STABLE(and keep a CURRENT in /boot for when I want to use the drive even if it means rebooting). In anycase, here's the relevant lines in dmesg. atapci0: <VIA 6420 SATA150 controller> port 0xe100-0xe107,0xe700-0xe703,0xe800-0xe807,0xe900-0xe903,0xe000 -0xe00f,0xd000-0xd0ff irq 20 at device 15.0 on pci0 atapci0: [ITHREAD] ata2: <ATA channel 0> on atapci0 ata2: [ITHREAD] ata3: <ATA channel 1> on atapci0 ata3: [ITHREAD] acd0: DVDR <LITE-ON DVDRW LH-20A1S/9L05> at ata2-master SATA150 WARNING: WITNESS option enabled, expect reduced performance. GEOM_LABEL: Label for provider acd0 is iso9660/FreeBSD_bootonly. So now comes the next two questions, any ETA on getting into STABLE and how about the loader not crashing?
