Yeah, but its not working.  I can boot with the 2.2-SNAP floppy and it
works, probing the disks on the device.  Booting from 2.1.5-R probes the
PCI device and quickly mentions 'Adaptech' something or other but there
are no drive probes.

At first I didnt realize it was finding it on the PCI bus, as it was just
the one line probe, and wasnt formatted like a standard probe message.
