FreeBSD 7 and SATA DVD Drives

Hello, does FreeBSD 7 support booting from SATA DVD drives? 
When I tried
6.2, it didn't work, and I was hoping it has been fixed by
now.

Thanks for any info,

Mike

I just built a machine with 7.0R AMD64 and had no trouble
booting from 
the Asus SATA DVD drive that was in it.  The motherboard was
an Intel 
P45GC - ICH7 chipset.

I think you have troubles with the BIOS configuration and
the boot from 
DVD or with the installation media itself.
I had no troubles booting from it on my machine.
