Running freebsd 6.1 Stable.

I am aware that there was issues with SiS SATA chipsets requiring a 
patch. Has this issue been resolved with not being able to see SATA 
drives (at all) in freebsd?

The bug is apparently with in how the SATA regs are addressed. I found a 
few references to patches, but the references are over a year old. Has 
anyone encountered this problem? How would it be fixed?

HW Summary :

Asus P4S800D-X m/b with SiS S655FX SATA Chipset
2x 300gb Maxtor SATA Hard drives
1x 40gb WD IDE HDD


I'd show the DMESG output, but it doesnt show any detection of SATA 
drives at all.


Thanks in advance!
