Subject: AHA-2940 Support in 2.1 Generic kernel?
Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org
Precedence: bulk

I've just taken a look at the 'HARDWARE' readme in the 2.1.0-950928-SNAP
directory.  It says that the 2940 PCI SCSI controller is not in the
generic kernel.  Does this mean that, as this will be the only disk I
have, I will be unable to install FreeBSD?  Will an alternative floppy
be available?

Cheers,
Dave.

PS.  Thanks for all the information on Gateway and SCSI controllers.  I'm
now pretty set on the Gateway machine and look forward to obtaining a
FreeBSD 2.1 CDROM when it's released.
