May-be. But I donnot think so. (Or Mark didn't read alpha/HARDWARE.TXT). The 53C825A was mentionned in src/release/texts/HARDWARE.TXT but not the plain 53C825. Btw, the 53C820 was mentionned but I removed it. The 53C820 should be so rare, that the 6 bytes to name it can be spared, IMO. And this gave me the opportunity to speak about newer Symbios chips and their support by FreeBSD at the alpha list. :) G=E9rard.
