Thanks for your reply, I've searched through Adaptec site for drivers but are offered only Linux (Red Hat , Suse, Novell Netware), Windows, SCO Unix, SCO UnixWare and Sun Solaris. Also is available Linux driver source code. I don't know if they offer FreeBSD driver, maybe I should ask them. So, if I find the drivers what is the procedure to compile them and load them to the kernel? Rgds.
