Hello Gheorghe,

I read with interest your success in getting your Adaptec 1210SA to work =
on FreeBSD. In your email you wrote that you downloaded patches to the =
driver code (and recompiled the kernel?) from =
http://people.freebsd.org/~sos/ATA

I downloaded the files myself, but am not sure how to proceed from =
there. Can you please give me some pointers on the next steps?=20

Appreciate your help, thanks!
