Can't get there
>Description:
This summer, I submitted a pr noting that, while the 3.0/-current source
tree had a reasonably functional driver for the DPT host adapters, the
install/boot floppy's kernel didn't include this driver. Therefore,
users with DPT host adapters have to use a second host adapter to get
FreeBSD installed on a drive and those without a spare supported host
adapter are just SOL. The pr was responded to by someone who said that
the driver would be included on the boot floppy in a future snapshot.

It still isn't.

Please fix this.
