Hello !

Recently installed March 12 -current snapshot and compiled kernel 
with new IDE subsystem. I see interesting lines in dmesg:

npx0: INT 16 interface
ata0: master: settting up UDMA2 mode on PIIX4 chip OK
ad0: <QUANTUM FIREBALL EX3.2A/A0A.0D00> ATA-4 disk at ata0 as master

changing root device to wd0s1a
vinum: loaded
vinum: reading configuration from /dev/wd2e
vinum: updating configuration from /dev/wd1e
ffs_mountfs: superblock updated for soft updates
ffs_mountfs: superblock updated for soft updates

Does it mean that new ATA disks can queue up commands (something 
similar to SCSI disks?)? I feel like I heard something in the 
-current list lately but I'm not sure...
