I'm running FreeBSD 6.1 on boards with HT1000 chipset, both ATA and SATA works as well under FreeBSD as it does under OpenBSD. Neither of them supports anything else than IDE mode for SATA. > Hardware has arrived here and I'm working on support as time permits, > watch -current for the commit when I'm done... Are you working on supporting the MMIO mode for SATA? (the one used by Linux - which does not support IDE mode!) There is also a really nice RAID mode (for a non HW-raid solution!) that depends on a binary blob from Broadcom available only for Linux/Windows. /Martin
