None. Heck, it doesnt even support ICH5R. It would still be nice though if
the support/lack of for onboard raid chips was somehow documented in the
hardware notes. There is no man page for ar, even though its listed.
Actually, it even conflicts with another ar man page.

ar(4)                    - synchronous Digi/Arnet device driver
ata(4), ar(4), acd(4), ad(4), afd(4), ast(4) - generic ATA/ATAPI disk
controller driver

So right now, people have to essentially try and boot, and hope its
supported. Makes hardware purchasing decisions kind of hard.
