Can anyone confirm that an Adaptec AHA-1542 works with anything since 3.6? I found that support for it was silently broken sometime in 3.x, even though it's listed as supported hardware for x86.
Also, I have 3 PCI Bustek adapters (BT-958D, BT-958, BT-946C) in a different machine, but booting up the 3.5 or 3.6 install disks hangs during autoprobe. So does NetBSD 2.x, although strangely NetBSD 1.6.2 is running on it just fine. I only bring this up because this may give some clue as to when the code for these cards stopped working (it is my impression that some code gets shared between the two, although I do not know exactly how or in what direction). Also, there's another compute, a Compaq PPro server, with a dual integrated Adaptec AIC-7xxx controller, but I got various SCSI errors trying to install on it. I have details at home and can post them if necessary. I like BSD, but it's really picky about hardware sometimes, and I've been forced to install Linux instead on more than one occasion because BSDs simply wouldn't boot. -- http://www.lightconsulting.com/~travis/ -><- GPG fingerprint: 50A1 15C5 A9DE 23B9 ED98 C93E 38E9 204A 94C2 641B
