In fact, the NetBSD driver seems to be out-of-date from the FreeBSD aic7xxx driver. I also used to maintain the Linux aic7xxx driver and *know* that is based off the FreeBSD aic7xxx driver because that's where I got it from (and where it is still based off of)! > > Have you even tried FreeBSD 2.2.8 or 3.0 to *see* if the boot > > floppies will work? > > I believe I grabbed a copy of 2.2.8-(stable?) and 3.0-(stable?) as > of last summer sometime. It has been awhile. But yes I did try it > _at_ _that_ _time_. Well, as we've been trying to tell you, the problem most likely isn't caused by the aic7xxx driver, but by something else.
