After reading the comp.os.386bsd faqs, I am left with one question. I
currently have a sony cdu31a type cd-rom drive.  Is this adapter currently
supported by FreeBSD or NetBSD or are there any plans to support it in the
future?  I am currently running Linux and am considering switching as the user
base in my area tends towards the *BSD flavors, but am concerned that my
hardware won't work with *BSD.

All answers appreciated.
