I thought I'd try again, since it's been a while:
Can anyone name a brand/model of Symbios '875 card that is *KNOWN* to work
on PC164 systems with the last ROM? One of the FreeBSD FAQs lists the Tekram
DC390F, but I have two of those, and they don't work in my Alphas. Generally,
cards come in one of two forms:
1. Recognized as a SCSI controller, but no devices found, not even
the card (and people whose cards work see the card as a device, so
it should be there).
2. Not recognized at all.
I would *really* like to have working SCSI cards for these boxes, but I have
gotten about five types of '875-based cards, and *NONE* of them work. Any
pointers?
