I ran into this, too (on 9.0).

In my kernel config I include GENERIC and then have a bunch of (mostly) nooptions, nodevice to get a smaller kernel.

To make it compile after updating /usr/src to the latest STABLE (from 9.0-RELEASE) I added

option         ATA_CAM
device         da

nodevice ata
nodevice atadisk

... but this makes the boot loader unable to find/see any partitions at all.

What devices am I missing?   I am booting from a compact flash ata interface on Soekris and PCEngines Alix boards.
