2.5: Does FreeBSD support the AHA-2742/2842 SCSI adapters from Adaptec?
No, FreeBSD does not. This is due to Adaptec's unwillingness to
supply programming information under other than non-disclosure. This
is unfortunate, but there's nothing we can do about it.
Yes, though portions of the sources are currently GPL'd (that is to say,
distributed under the GNU Public License), so be aware of the fact should
you wish to distribute kernel binaries compiled with it - you MUST also
provide the sources to the driver with the kernel image to stay legal

of /usr/src/sys/gnu/{aic7770,misc} on whatever media you distribute the
kernel.
