I have an adaptec 1542b that worked fine under win98, but wouldn't work worth anything under FreeBSD. I started playing with the jumpers and here there is about 4 places to set the IRQ on the card. If they aren't all set the same it doesn't seem to matter under win98, but Freebsd can't handle the card unless they are all set the same. I still can't get FBSD to boot off this card, but then it is from 1987 or something like that, so I try not to get too worked up about it.
