Exactly.  I have a Seagate ST-02 SCSI card, and I was wondering about
FreeBSD support for this card.  It works well with the  drives I currently
use and I was hoping to be able to use it under unix.  Is there any support
for the ST-02 in FreeBSD-1.0-Epsilon??  If not, could there be?  I know that 
most users would prefer to use an inexpensive card than all the expense of
the superior Adaptec 15xx cards.

Any replies would be appreciated.  Thanks!
