I'm running 8-STABLE on a Supermicro X8DTH-iF (BIOS 2.0a - latest) which uses an ICH10 SATA controller. It has 6 ports, which are populated as follows:
0 - WDC WD3200BEKT HDD
1 - Lite-On DS-8A4S DVD-R
2 - WDC WD3200BEKT HDD
3-5 - Unused
Everything is detected and works fine in legacy (non-AHCI) mode:
When I added these lines to /boot/loader.conf:
The boot messages change to:
Note that my DVD drive is now showing up as a pass0 device and isn't usable. I tried adding this to /boot/loader.conf:
But that didn't change anything. The BIOS is configured for AHCI mode, and given that everything works in legacy mode, I don't think it is a BIOS issue. I could continue to use legacy mode, but want to be prepared for the eventual change in default behavior and deprecation of legacy mode.
A verbose boot returns some additional info, though I'm not sure it is useful:
/sys/dev/ata/chipsets/ata-ahci.c says that the eb14 signature is ATA_ATAPI_MASTER, so I'm not sure what's going wrong here. Anyone have any ideas?
