>Description:
I am unable to boot into the FreeBSD -current July 2nd, 2005 6.0 snapshot.
Asus P4S8X BIOS 1005
PNP Disabled PIC config APIC (PIC doesn't work either)
512MB RAM
Teac 4x CDRW PATA
Toshiba DVD-ROM PATA
Quantum 10GB IDE PATA
Seagate 80GB SATA (Chanel 0)
Seagate 120GB Serial ATA (Channel 1)
Qlogic 12160 SCSI HBA
3 x 36.4 GB Seagate U320 SCSI drives

System boots to cd-rom and hard disk detection  stops booting after detecting Serial ATA devices.  Tried with default boot and with ACPI disabled.  Used to boot with 5.2.1 before I moved to linux.  System boots fine with Windows and Kubuntu GNU/Linux
