no.....it doesn't. The only sata ports that show up are the ones connected to the backpane via the reverse breakout sas cable....and they show as empty....so i'm thinking that opensolaris isn't working with the chipset sata.....
In the bios i can select from: Native IDE AMD_AHCI RAID Legacy IDE I have it set to AMD_AHCI....but my board also has an IDE slot which i was using for the CDROM drive (this is what i used to load opensolaris in the first place....) I also have an option called "Sate IDE combined mode" I think this may be my problem...i had this enabled, because i thought i needed it in order to use both sata and ide....i think now it's something else. I'm going to try to boot without it on, if it doesn't work, i'll try to reinstall with it disabled.
