An update: Yanked the 256k cache stick they charged me $17 for,
FreeBSD 2.2-current works perfecly now on both IDE and SCSI.

However "gunzip -t src-cur.2300A.gz" now takes 61 seconds when
it took 55 before. I thought those chips on the motherboard labled,
"Write Back Cache" looked bogus. AMI BIOS now reports, "Write Back
Cache Enabled" when before it said "256k cache" with the cache
stick in place.

Guess I should expect such with $200 of memory, and $150 SCSI card,
on a $65 motherboard. :-)
