The VTi SCSI card is not supported by RiscBSD and is not likely to be in the
future. The FAQ says we would like to write a driver for it however when I last
spoke to VTi I was informed that this card was no longer made and no technical
info could be provided to me to write a driver.
This means that a driver will only appear if someone who has a card writes one
as we (the kernel kernel) do not have access to the hardware plus the lack of
any card info makes things complex.
Cheers,
Mark
