I'm looking into buying an Adaptec 2940 PCI SCSI-2 HD Controller, and a
Micronics motherboard with a Phoenix Bios. Will I have any problems with
BSD? I've been having a lot of trouble with my current hardware setup and
Linux - kernel panics, inswapper task lockups, etc. I need a stable system.
Personally, I'd buy an NCR 53c810-based SCSI card, or a BusLogic,
before I'd ever give money to Adaptec. But, to each his/her own.
