Isn't the AIC7860 one of the ASICs they "inherited" when they bought
Future Domain? This may have something to do with the problem.

In the meantime, which is the fastest PCI adapter for which there's really

Oh.... And is there any code in the SCSI drivers for target mode? Just got
a call to do a fairly fancy SCSI peripheral, and a stripped-down FreeBSD
would be just the thing to run it.
