Upgrade 6.1 -> 6.2 results in undetected SATA 



Hi,

I just upgraded from BSD 6.1 to 6.2, but unfortunatley my 2nd SATA drive does not get detected in the new kernel.
When I go in the bootloader prompt and manually load the boot.old (6.1) it all works fine.

I diffed the dmesg's and noticed that in 6.1 the ATA controller gets detected as 'GENERIC ATA controller' and in 6.2 as VIA ATA controller (which is correct (see mainboard specs) ).

What could be the problem ? 
Is there a way to force the 6.2 kernel in using the GENERIC ATA controller driver (as a temp fix )? 
Any other ideas to solve it ?

Here's my system setup:

Intel core2 duo E6600  
Asus P5VD2-MX,Sk775,PCIe  motherboard
1x DVDR (Sata)
2x Maxtor Sata 160GB




Thanks, 

Christophe
