I wonder why this driver has not been donated by Initio for inclusion in the FreeBSD source (it would have been in a better shape) So I returned the board and got a Tekram in exchange. If you already have the board, consider going to www.initio.com and patching your sources to include the Initio driver. Good luck TfH John wrote: > > I did a scan of the archives on freebsd-scsi and found some conflicting > information... if your card is truly an Initio, you might want to email the > freebsd-scsi for information on it's driver. > > Working blindly and assuming that the card is even supported... did you > modify your kernel to show scbus1 in addtion to scbus0 ?
