Forgive my ignorance, but isn't this SCSI controller supported by the 
sym(4) driver? 
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=sym&sektion=4&manpath=FreeBSD+6.2-RELEASE
Why do I keep getting this panic error?
sym0: <1010-33> port 0xac00-0xacff mem 
0xfdcff000-0xfdeff3ff,0xfdefc000-0xfdcfdfff irq 11 at device 8.0 on pci5
panic: sym: VTOBUS FAILED!
