The ATA driver was changed in 5.x, and then again in 6-CURRENT.  If
you want to run 5.x on that system, your going to need to install FBSD
4.11 first, then do a source upgrade to 5.x.  But you'll also need to
replace the 5.x ATAng driver with the 6.x ATA-Mk III driver.

You'll need:
The RELENG_5 Sources
ATA MKiiin Sources & Patch files
   - http://people.freebsd.org/~sos/ATA/ata-mk3n-releng5.tar.gz
   - http://people.freebsd.org/~sos/ATA/ata-mk3n.diff-releng5.gz

Then:
- remove contents of /usr/src/sys/dev/ata/*
- untar ata-mk3n-releng5.tar.gz in to /usr/src/
- appy the ata-mk3n.diff-releng5.gz patch to /usr/src
- do usual build[world/kernel]
- do an installkernel, and reboot the system
- if it works, then installworld, otherwise let Soren Schmidt
<sos@freebsd.org> know.
