Hello -
      One of the guys here at work recently acquired FreeBSD 2.0 (On an
InfoMagic BSDisc) and is attempting to install it on what appears to be
a fairly vanilla 486/66 machine.  Installation all goes well except where
the SCSI card and the CDROM reader are concerned.  He cannot 'see' the 
SCSI card - when booting with /kernel -c no device initialization seems
to occur for the cdrom and there appears to be no recognition of the
scsi card.  The card is a "Future Domain TMC-850MER v04" and the CDROM
reader is a "Chinon CDS-525" which is supposed to support the iso9660
standard.  We attempted installing the package here at work from the 
cd using the same card and drive on a Compaq 486/66 with the same results.
The devices available in the kernel don't seem to include the FutureDomain
card - however the installation docs do suggest that family of cards is
supported in FreeBSD2.0.  

Thanks for any help or advice you can provide -
