Sorry to say, but this driver is a poor sucker in FreeBSD. If it . doesn't work for you, there are only two chances: . . get another host adapter, or . take over maintenance of the aic driver. :) . . Very obviously, i would find it cool if you decide for #2, but i'm . afraid you're going for #1 (or a non-FreeBSD solution at all). . . -.- . cheers, J"org that's kinda bad news since the zip drive uses this adapter driver and it's looking like the cheapest backup solution on earth _______________________________________________________________________ | Curt Finch Phoenix Net-Tek LLC curt@pnk.com 512-795-0709 | -----------------------------------------------------------------------
