Hmm, indeed, I've been using a differen HBA in the past.  Do you think
it would make sense using another HBA, like a Tekram one?  I could
easily swap them.

Anyway, the ahc0 at least can still find the attached drives while the
BIOS is running (otherwise it wouldn't boot at all).  Isn't it using
the very same IO addresses then as FreeBSD with ACPI enabled?
