   I am trying to install 2.0.5 on a machine with a wd7000 scsi controller.
   The install kernel does not have support for this card, is any other way
   to do this?

Try the installation boot floppy from FreeBSD 2.1.  You can still use your
old 2.0.5 CD with it, though you'll also need a kernel from 2.1 to actually
stay working post-install.  I suggest simply going 2.1 all the way.
