The AHA1742 and BusLogic 742 controllers have been used to initially port Julian Elischer's Mach SCSI code over to 386BSD. The EISA support has evolved drastically, so pick up a FreeBSD 2.2 system if you need it soon. (Also, if it's going to be an HP Netserver with an on-board 2742, see my other mail.) -- J"org Wunsch Unix support engineer joerg_wunsch@interface-business.de http://www.interface-business.de/~j
