|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver provides support for the Adaptec AIC-6260 and AIC-6360 SCSI
|
|
controller chips.
|
|
This includes the Adaptec AHA-1505, AHA-1510A, AHA-1510B, AHA-1520A,
|
|
AHA-1520B, AHA-1522A, AHA-1522B, AHA-1535 and the Creative Labs
|
|
SoundBlaster SCSI host adapter on the ISA bus.
|
|
The AHA-1460, AHA-1460B, AHA-1460C and AHA-1460D PC Card cards are
|
|
also supported by this driver.
|
|
On the pc98 platform, support is provided for the Adaptec AHA-1030P
|
|
and AHA-1030B, as well as the NEC PC-9801-100.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Many systems that use these controller chips do not have a boot ROM
|
|
and therefore cannot be booted from.
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
The driver does not work well with multiple devices on the SCSI bus.
|
|
The driver works well with devices like CDROMs and Tape drives.
|
|
The driver works not so well with disk drives.
|
|
The PC Card version appears to work better than the ISA version, but
|
|
that may be due to differing levels of testing of the devices.
