Subject: New EIDE card - no boot. :(
Sender: questions-owner@FreeBSD.org
Precedence: bulk

I broke down and got one of those EIDE cards.  I beleive it was
from Promise.  Anyhow, it boots fine in DOS, but fails to boot
my FreeBSD partition. 

I'm wondering if there is any known reason why?  I wasn't impressed
with the speed improvment in dos so I'm just going to go back to my
old VL-IDE controller, but I'm interested in hearing any thoughts on
the subject.
