David,
That jumper they reference in the manual isn't clear to my reading what
state it needs to be in. You may need to try both settings and see if it
makes a difference.
As for the additional messages that is to be sure you see output from the
hardware tests which should list the SCSI con

Well it has two SCSI ports on the motherboard, has an
option to enable/disable it in the CMOS, and was
advertised as having a SCSI Ultra 360 controller. If
it doesn't, I want my money back.

David,
How do you have the CD drive cabled? That motherboard has 68-pin SCSI
connectors, and SCSI CD's mostly have 50-pin connectors, there are a few
with 68-pin connectors, but it isn't common.
Do you have the CD terminated, and the SCSI on the motherboard's
termination set correctly?

I see no SCSI adaptor messages whatsoever. Upon boot,
it goes directly from the BIOS post message to the
FreeBSD boot manager. I tried hitting ctrl c
repeatedly but it still just went to the boot manager.
I've tried connecting the hard drive to each of the
two SCSI channels, and not plugging it in

Well, after I did what I did everything worked. But if your not seeing any
SCSI devices then there is something else up.
As said. I'd double check the SCSI connection. I'd lo
If the SCSI is enabled you should get a boot message and be able to go into
the SCSI configuration.
All SCSI controllers will list the devices found on boot, so if you aren't
seeing any devices you don't have it working right. Check the BIOS again
and check your cabling, and termination.
Okay, now we're getting somewhere (maybe). Looking in
the CMOS for firewire, I finally found the SCSI
controller setting. I never would have guessed it
would be under PCI configuration. Anyway, I enabled
that, and I disabled firewire, both ethernet ports (I
use wireless anyway), and both SATA chann

On many newer motherboards you can enable or disable the SCSI in the
BIOS. You should make sure the SCSI is enabled. If the SCSI is enabled
you should get a message from the SCSI BIOS to hit some keys to enter the
SCSI configuration. This is all using the Motherboards firmware and
