My aplogies for the poor explanation. What I meant was, that FreeBSD =
4.9R does not seem to find the Promise 20376 controller at all (which is =
the third IDE controller).

It finds the primary and secondary IDE ports, on IRQ 14 and 15 =
respectively, but it does not detect a third IDE port, the onboard =
Promise 20376.

I do know that. :)

What it sees is this:
---------------------------------------------
asarian-host: {root} % atacontrol list
ATA channel 0:
Master: ad0 <ASI ARAID99 1000 Rev 2.5/Rev 2.5> ATA/ATAPI rev 6
Slave: no device present
ATA channel 1:
Master: acd0 <ASUS CD-S500/A/V1.2D> ATA/ATAPI rev 0
Slave: no device present
---------------------------------------------
I have, I must admit, no experience with compiling in a third IDE port =
(and I am not even sure that is required).
As before, I truly appreciate the help,
