Er - have you seen man atacontrol in RELENG_4 lately ? I will
quote the most pertinent extract:
Allthough the ATA driver allows for creating an ATA RAID on
disks on any controller, there are restrictions. It is only pos
sible to boot on an array if its either located on a "real" ATA
RAID controller like the Promise or Highpoint controllers, or if
the RAID declared is of RAID1 or SPAN type, in case of a SPAN
the partition to boot must reside on the first disk in the SPAN
So the answer is - yes you can.
