4.9 stable release installation probs on x86

It depends on the BIOS, but yes, they're usually in the config section
for disks.  It's worth digging around, though, because there's nothing
that says these options have to be on one particular page.  Look for
DMA, Ultra-DMA or PIO, and try different settings to see if one works.

Don't forget to CC: your response back to freebsd-questions, so that
other folks on the list can see what's going on (and possibly correct my
mistakes :-).
