Unfortunately, DMA for aceride(4) does not work on DS10. You can

(1) netboot from on-board NIC

(see 
https://cdn.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-9.3/alpha/INSTALL.html#Installing%20the%20NetBSD%20System 
for more details)

(2) or, use custom kernel with DMA disabled:

---
aceride* at pci? dev ? function ? flags 0x0002
---                               ^^^^^^^^^^^^

Note that all SATA controllers I've ever tried work just fine on
DS10, when plugged in PCI slots, including PCIe ahcisata(4)
connected via PCI-PCIe reverse bridges.

Thansk,
