<p>It's broken. It cannot handle commands on both channels
simultaneously.
<p>There's a workaround available now, but as of FreeBSD 2.2,
we felt it was still not long enough in the source tree to
shake out any potential bugs. Hence it is disabled by default.
To enable it, you have to reconfigure and recompile your kernel
with

<p>There's a workaround available now and it is enabled automatically
if your system uses this chip. For the details refer to the
manual page of the disk driver (man 4 wd).
in the config file.
<p>In order to install the system, you must however ensure
that only one channel of this controller will be used. Don't

it must be the slave on the primary channel. Once your new
kernel is in place, you can rearrange the machine as you like.

versions.
<p>If you're already running FreeBSD 2.2 with a CMD640 IDE
controller and you want to use the second channel, build a
new kernel with <tt/options "CMD640"/ enabled.
