Assuming by "Adaptec 2930", he meant the 2930 under the name Adaptec
markets their Mac stuff under (which I suddenly can't remember...
something Domain... Future Domain maybe?), it works fine with the
existing Adaptec driver, but the macppc needs this patch to
sys/dev/ic/aic7xxx.c to make any adaptec card work:

--- 522,528 ----
bus_space_write_1(st, sh, HCNTRL, CHIPRST | PAUSE);
#endif
+ DELAY(1000);
/*
* Ensure that the reset has finished
*/
We haven't committed this because there's more consensus on the side
of "it's a bug somewhere else in the macppc bus code" than "it's an
bug in the Adaptec driver"
