>Description:
I have just bought a new box - Intel E4500/2Gb RAM/GeForce 8500 256 Mb/250 Gb SATA-II Seagate HDD. All this was set up on Gigabyte GA-P35-S3 motherboard, based on Intel P35 chipset. But I cannot bring up nor 6.1-RELEASE from DVD, nor 6.2-STABLE, moved by dump/restore on HDD at another box (under Intel 865 chipset). When I try to boot 6.2-STABLE. there are two bugs:

1. My Genius Optical Value+ wireless combobox (keyboard + mouse) does not detected
2. SATA Controller detects as JMicron SATA 300 and strange detects my HDD and DVD-RW's (two Optiarc 7170 devices) as UDMA33 :-D and works this way - very, very slow...

I suspect this is not Gigabyte-specific problem, but chipset support problem.

Sorry for marking PR critical:high, but for me it is really critical - I have lost Internet connection at home (I do not connect to Internet from Windows at usual reasons :-) )
>How-To-Repeat:
Try to install FreeBSD 6.2 on box with Intel P35-based motherboard
