Problems with FreeBSD installation

[Ben Fallon]

Might want to take a look at this page as it may provide a bit more insight. The problem isn't with the Machine specifically but with the ATI Sata Controller/Chipset.  Not sure if this has been fixed yet.

My laptop is a Toshiba Satellite A210-1CE, and I am attaching the information you requested:
the output from "lspci -v" and dmesg.  Hope it helps :-)
