Ok, I found the supported hardware for the sparc64 platform. I guess it
does not have any RAID controllers that work. That is too mad since I
am really fond of sparc hardware.

Subject: RAID cards in sparc64 hardware?

Hello-
in reading the thread about running pf on an ultra 5, I saw that people
were running fxp NICs in them. I started thinking about the possibility
of running a Mylex Acceleraid 250 or any other RAID controller that
OpenBSD supports in an Ultra5.
I have been caught up in thinking that these nics and RAID controllers
needed to be run in i386 hardware. So I just tested out my realtek
NICs, and they work in the sparc64, what about RAID controllers that I
have always associated with PC's?
