Im attempting to get an Adaptec 1520 SCSI card to work with FreeBSD...
I realize that FreeBSD only officially supports the 1540 and 17xx
but I was wondering if someone found a way around this?
NetBSD-1.0 works with the 152x. There is no "way around this".
Either there is a driver that works with the card, or there isn't.
There is a driver in NetBSD-1.0 (and will be in FreeBSD-2.0); there
isn't one in FreeBSD-1.1.5, NetBSD-0.9.
NetBSD-1.0 can be found on ftp.iastate.edu (among other places) in
/pub/netbsd/.
