I have an NCR 53C810 SCSI controller.  For a complete run-down on
my system, see http://www.activesw.com/~eric/html/computer.html.  I really
would like to get this working, because if I don't I will have no way to
transfer files between WinDOS 95 and FreeBSD efficiently (mounting the
msdos partition is so nice and convenient!).
