The other, perhaps connected with this, issue is that I lost an
extended partition while creating FreeBSD partition. It had happened
before I started trying to fix the size problem described above.

After slicing the newly created RAID 0 array with sysinstall and
installing Windows, formatting NTFS and FAT slices (with Windows) I
created BSD partitions on the first slice and lost the extended
partition (slice). (a more detailed description of what I did is in
the original posting to freebsd-questions).

Today, after the change in kernel, I have removed FreeBSD partitions
from the first slice and recreated them (with some differences).
Nothing wrong happened.

Could this be connected with the bug in VIA ata raid driver? Or maybe
it was just a coincidence and/or was entirely my fault?

With the partition corruption (all of them) in a slice I reported[1] to
stable@ with the same controller, I think I smell a bug.  I do not know
if it is a VIA hardware bug or a bug in the driver.
