Like I said, I'm not sure about SATA, but I have that same motherboard, and things work pretty well. I haven't been able to get ACPI to work, so I leave it disabled, but this isn't a big deal for me. You will need the sk ethernet device set in the kernel config, as well as some other things. You will have to go with 5.3-RELEASE to support your hardware. If you decide to install it, let me know and I'll send my kernel config file, device.hints and loader.conf. - jt _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
