 The latest 5.4-STABLE sources exhibit the same problem--ata(4) doesn't
 work properly (device timeout messages during boot) with the ICH5R
 SATA controller after compiling with sources retrieved on 13 June
 2005. I found a workaround:
 
 Comment out the "options  ATA_STATIC_ID" line from the kernel config
 file. After rebooting, you may discover the device mappings for your
 partitions are wrong. Get the list of geom managed partitions and edit
 /etc/fstab to correct the device mappings.
