Hi everyone,

>From my understanding as of 20110424 revision device ahci has been
integrated into kernel:

----------------
It is possible to load devices ahci, ata, siis and mvs as modules, but
option ATA_CAM should remain in kernel configuration to make ata
module work as CAM driver supporting legacy ATA controllers. Device
ata still can be used in modular fashion
.......
No kernel config options or code have been removed, so if a problem
arises, please report it and optionally revert to the old ATA stack.
In order to do it you can remove from the kernel config:
            options        ATA_CAM
            device         ahci
----------------

Does this mean that loading ahci in loader.conf is useless ?

Thanks
