| | The story continues with Preview 2 - from the README:
| | 
| | Now the functionality is almost equal to that of stock ATA, I'm getting
| | close to being ready to expose this on the -current users, so please
| | give this a go to shake out the last nasties.
| | I've fixed alot of minor issue that testers have reported back (thanks!!),
| | plus a few chipset issued found over the last days.
| | 
| | Grap the latest from ftp.deepcore.dk/pub/ATAng and apply the diff files 
| | to your src tree, remove the contents of sys/dev/ata and extract the 
| | ATAng-*tgz file there, then do the usual drill to get a new kernel...
| | 
| | As usual it might kill your dog, abduct your kids and whatnot :)
| | 
| | Let me know how this works out for you!

Adding atadisk fixed the linking problem.

I'm now getting millions of these;

ata1: spurious interrupt - status=0xff error=0xff reason=0xff

ata1 is disabled in the BIOS.
