Someone else wrote me already. All you have to do is go into the BIOS 
setup: Disable HD DMA Transfers, Disable HD Translation, Switch it to 
PIO 0 mode. FreeBSD boots fine, then when the kernel takes over it 
programms the ATA controller itself, so no speed loss (little slower 
booting, a second or two at most).
