So I guess 378 is a newer ATA controller chip. It is not supported (yet?) by
FreeBSD 4.10. (Maybe you like to bother Promise to provide FreeBSD drivers
for end customers ;-) You will have more luck with FreeBSD 5.2.1. I'm sorry
about my ignorance concerning Promise products and drivers, but I never used
their controllers.
