Using BSD/OS 2.1 and the 2940UW I dont seem to be able to get the
kernel to report anything faster than 10M/s at boot. I have enabled UW
in the scsi bios, disconnected the cdrom on the advice of a previous
post, and have applied the kernel patch from bsdi which apparently
introduces support for the features of the scsi card.

Is there anything else I need to do? And should I expect ultra or wide
modes to work, or both?
