A slew of Pxxx motherboards are hitting the streets that contain built-in pci
adaptec aic7850, I repeat 7850, controllers.  These are quality boards with built-in adaptec bios.  They save the PCI consumer a couple of hundred dollars by not 
having to buy a scsi controller.  I have used these boards successfully with:
OS2, WinNT, Win95, Netware 3.x-4.x, Dos. 
Linux does not work.  FreeBSD 2.0.5 does not work.  Consumers would like to know i[it,if] FreeBSD will support the adaptec aic7850 controller that these boards are
using. dp
