   I now that the above hardware not is on the positive supported list...
   So is there a newer version of FreeBSD, which can handle the hardware or 
   do I have to buy another supported SCSI-controller, disable the internal 
   controller, install the FreeBSD and then make a device-driver for the 
   on-board controller etc..

Well, there are certainly newer versions of FreeBSD out there now, but
without knowing anything about that on-board controller, I can't say
whether they'd work or not! :-(
