Capturing ATA devices serial numbers

[Vaughn Clinton]

Okay - I've tried this against two devices in the system.  The devices
queried are report as ad0 and ad2.  When using the following command against
either device I get the following response: 

"usage: atacontrol <command> channel [args]"

Now, it must be noted that I am using a ccd device that's has both these
devices configured as member of the ccd configuration.  I'm pretty sure that
this should not interfere with the query but, I thought I would let you
know.

Any further suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
