Tried HBA mode. Devices attached as AHCI were not recognized. Tried
leaving in RAID mode: cannot have two non_RAID devices. Its either one
(Raid) and one (non-Raid) or one RAID only.

Only one VD_ defined mirror pair in RAID mode was recognized after
boot by the ISO boot media.

Is it possible interrupting second stage boot to set hw.x.y.z=<val>
sysctl type settings would help? Something about device recognition?
