Compile a new kernel if possible and add the following line in the
controllers section.. I added mine just before all the other SCSI controlers
listed.

controller    wds0 at isa? port 0x350 bio irq 15 drq 6 vector wdsintr

Of course the port io address, irq and drq depends on your card jumper
settings.

If you are unable to compile your own kernel and need a boot floppy maybe I
or some other kind soul can compile and create a boot floppy image with wds0
support.
