I can't see any mention of this in the FAQ so here goes.
I have an Acorn SCSI card. I believe I am right in thinking that currently
this is the fastest card under BSD as it is the only working interrupt
driven driver.
If I install the PowerROM upgrade from PowerTec will this still be the
case or do I have to switch to the PowerTec SCSI driver? Or is a
PowerROM'd card simply not supported at all yet?
As hardware is still the same so I would imagine that the Acorn driver can
still be used. Anyone care to correct me?
