I have an A8V Deluxe mobo which has the Promise 20378 Controller and
the VIA K8T800Pro chipset. The VIA works perfectly with fBSD/AMD64
5.4-RELEASE and my 200GB Maxtor, but the Promise controller went wierd
on me! (There were two drives in the drive selection menu, ad4 and
something else even though i only had one harddrive).

I never done anything about the Promise controller because disabling
it and using VIA reduces the boot time by about 8-9 seconds.

I can't say for -CURRENT though.
