Hi :
It's the same problem I had. Those cards only works if they have the AIC
6360 ROM. Otherwise, they are not recognized under FreeBSD 4.x. That card
was perfectly supported until FreeBSD 3.4-RELEASE, but since the change to
the FreeBSD 4 it had some troubles.
AFAIK, this problem have been corrected under FreeBSD 5-CURRENT.
Good Luck.
