From c1acbaa5762cf65dc8f068b901b0aae417cff5ad Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: imp Date: Sun, 9 Nov 2003 01:30:46 +0000 Subject: o Update to closer to the official names for these cards. o Remove entries for 1510, 152x and 1535. These are supported, for some value of supported, by the aic driver. o Add notes about 1542-CP being plug and play, but it can still conflict with other resources because all the resources it uses are set with the onboard BIOS. --- share/man/man4/aha.4 | 30 +++++++++++++++++++++--------- 1 file changed, 21 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) (limited to 'share/man/man4/aha.4') diff --git a/share/man/man4/aha.4 b/share/man/man4/aha.4 index 70239eb..1f86c03 100644 --- a/share/man/man4/aha.4 +++ b/share/man/man4/aha.4 @@ -42,32 +42,44 @@ In .Sh DESCRIPTION This driver provides access to the .Tn SCSI -bus connected to an Adaptec 1510, 152x, 1535, 154xA, 154xB, 154xC, -154xCF, 154xCP, or 164x host adapter. +bus connected to an Adaptec AHA-154xA, AHA-154xB, AHA-154xC, +AHA-154xCF, AHA-154xCP, or AHA-1640 host adapter. +x is 0 for controllers without a floppy drive and 2 for controllers +that have them.
