Rubbish.

My aplogies for the poor explanation.

I don't think this question is very well suited to the -hackers list but I'll
spam everyone anyway.
Define what you mean by FreeBSD can't find it? It doesn't find the device? Or
you don't know how to go about "intializing" a new drive in FreeBSD? (S

My greatest fear, however, is that FreeBSD cannot deal with a third IDE controller.
Can you at least alleviate that fear?

All three IDE controllers are enabled in the BIOS, as far as I can tell.

If a BSD box doesn't "see" the third IDE, this seems to be in the BIOS is
Enabled only Primary IDE Controller. You must enable both Channels on the
controller.
Or is the IDE harddisk seen in BIOS post test? So you can try to change
the position of "problematic" disk to another master/slave/chan
I installed my new FreeBSD 4.9R on my new ASUS KV8 Deluxe board. Everything work
fine... except, FreeBSD cannot find the third harddisk! (the third IDE).
How do I enable it? Or make FreeBSD see it? (please, please, let me not have to
recompile the kernel).
Thank you,
