Official word from Adaptec is that FreeBSD is no longer a supported

That's really really bad news. Oddly, ICP Vortex Germany told me
the opposite wr/t to their new line of cards. They said, they
were working on full FreeBSD support.
Great, that definitely wasn't the feel that I got from them ... I've been
using Adaptec products since early 90's, mainly because they have always
been the 'tried-n-true' product ...
As I mentioned to someone else, I'm willing to endure having the server
hang up a few times in order to debug the problem, and fix the driver, but
any correspondance that I actually got answers back on gave me the feel
that I was on my own ... my previous email to this was meant to warn
others to think twice, especially with newer FreeBSD boxes, about going
with anything that runs on the iir(4) driver ...
