I found out the following:

                   on-board IDE     known-working IDE
                +-------------------------------------
Fireball        |    no work            no work
Old 80MB sucker |      work               work

Therefore, I conclude that the Quantum FIREBALL 1080AT does not work with 
FreeBSD 2.1.0-RELEASE.  Strange...

Anybody know about this?  Is anyone else using a FIREBALL 1080AT?

For those that have forgotten, the problem was corrupted reads (perhas 
writes, too?  I don't know...) from the drive with any moderate amount of 
activity.
