Alex,
     I seem to remember some support for (AMD) Lance ethernet chipsets.

     (Including information on the chipsets in question, from the manual, 
may help also.)

                                        [RC]

Subject: FreeBSD UNIX support for embedded SCSI on Compaq DeskPro 6200 XL?
Date: Monday, July 15, 1996 10:36AM


Hi,

I am attempting to install FreeBSD UNIX 2.1 from a CD-ROM to my
Compaq DeskPro 6200 XL, which has embedded PCI-SCSI, and
PCI-Ethernet adapters, manufactured by AMD. Apperently FreeBSD has no
support (drivers) for the embeded AMD SCSI, and AMD Ethernet adapters.

1. Is it possible to use any of the existent drivers?

2. Is support for AMD adapters going to be included in the future, and if
yes when?

3. Any suggestions, other than installing a different SCSI Adapter?

Thanks,
Alex
