I have an X8DTH motherboard and I just installed freenas to a SATADOM plugged into the board. However, the SATA ports aren't even listed in the BIOS as being an option to boot from. It only allows me to boot from the LSI HBA. Any ideas how to boot from the SATA ports?

Never mind... I'm an idiot.

Just disable the boot option in the HBA then the SATA ports become an option.
