I've been working on a server which has two EIDE chips installed: One on
the motherboard (part of the Intel 440BX chipset) and a Promise Ultra100 TX2
in a PCI slot. I want to use the latter controller for the hard drives --
because it's faster -- and use the motherboard chip only for the CD-ROM.
Trouble is, FreeBSD 4.4-RELEASE to hang in the middle of the bootstrap
process whenever the Promise card is installed. Here are the diagnostic
messages:

RTC BIOS diagnostic error 20<config_unit>

[System hangs indefinitely at this point]
Note that the system recognizes the Promise card but seems to hang right at
the point where it would normally be probing the card for attached hard
drives.
If I remove all hard drives from the Promise card, the card's boostrap ROM
code (which is activated before the MBR is loaded) displays the message
"BIOS not installed." In this case, FreeBSD boots.
Any idea what's wrong? I could venture some guesses, but I'm not intimately
familiar with the IDE code.

P.S. -- Just as an aside, what's the "RTC BIOS" message about? It doesn't
appear to be related to this problem, but I'm curious.
