I'll try fixing the NVIDIA driver override port once I can get this machine
with a brandspanking new SiS ATA chipset to boot with DFly, which it
currently does not. Linux reports a SIS5513: SiS 962/963 MuTIOL IDE UDMA133
controller, and it supports it. So does FreeBSD-CURRENT.

I'll be cracking on the nvidia port once that niggle is solved.

Cheers,
Emiel (initially responsible for the damn port)
