Perfect! That's exactly what I needed to know. Thanks. I actually also have an external SCSI QIC-150 tape drive and a bunch of tapes, but I'm still wrestling with getting the system to see the SCSI card (it's an Adaptec AVA-2902E/I). But that's another story :-) OK, that story is that probe-scsi-all returns nothing.
First though I have to address a cooling issue. It looks like this PGX32 exercise was just too much for the machine's tired old CPU fan and it has now gone to that great tower case in the sky. So we're down until I can replace that. No biggie.

Is there a way to get to the OK prompt? I have tried control/break and that does not work.

AHB(4) BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual AHB(4)
NAME
ahb -- Adaptec EISA SCSI host adapter driver
SYNOPSIS
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration file:
device scbus
device ahb
Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5):
ahb_load="YES"
DESCRIPTION
This driver provides access to the SCSI bus connected to an Adaptec AHA-174X host adapters in ``enhanced'' mode. Tagged queueing and syn-
chronous SCSI transfers are supported.
HARDWARE
The ahb driver supports the following SCSI host adapters:
o Adaptec AHA-1740
o Adaptec AHA-1742
o Adaptec AHA-1740A
o Adaptec AHA-1742A
CAVEATS
The Adaptec 174X is very sensitive to SCSI bus termination and cable length. It may also have difficulties operating with some modern
devices that, due to their speed, expose timing problems in the controller. There are no known mechanisms for working around device incom-
patibilities of this nature.

AUTHORS
The ahb driver was written by Justin T. Gibbs.
