SATA driver issues

Søren,
Unfortunately, the first 2 drives were wiped out from having been
tested... installed Windows/XP, and it all worked fine. The
motherboard I have is a SOYO Dragon Platinum Edition which has the
Silicon Image controller.
I want to be sure what the problem is before I begin installing
FreeBSD-5.2 again.
I read in some release notes there were some issues with SATA, but I'm
not certain if those issues still apply to the -CURRENT codebase.
Thanks.
Forrest

Please at least provide the output from dmesg so I have a chance to see
what kind of HW we are talking about. A dmesg from a working kernel
would be real handy as well...
