I have the WC FreeBSD 2.1 CD, which I'm attempting to use.  My target
host has Future Domain SCSI for the drive controller.  

This machine will be dedicated to FreeBSD, no DOS or anything.

I want to build via NFS mount from my SUN.

When I boot via floppy, the configuration screen comes up, but it
won't allow me to partition the drives.  Claims there aren't any
drives.

This box is currently running LINUX without complaint.  

Do I need a different driver?  The HARDWARE.TXT file has no reference
to the Future Domain products.  

TIA!
