Yes, I believe this card is supported, but does not have a BIOS, and therefore
can't be autoprobed.
Since you said the install found the CDROM attached to it, check
/etc/conf.modules for information such as:
alias scsi_hostadpter ncr583x
options ncr583x ncr583x=0x140,12
where "ncr583x" is the actual driver name, in this case the NCR 583x series, and
"0x140,12" represents the base address and irq of the card.
After doing this, "modprobe ncr583x" should produce driver support.
