Hi Thomas,
 Replying to a message of Thomas Mcwilliams to Ruud Senden:

 TM> The Symbios (NCR) 810 PCI SCSI-adapter does not have an on-board bios.

 Actually, you only need the bios support if you intend to boot off of a scsi
drive hooked to the 810 controller.  If you are booting off ide, the 810 will
work fine once the driver is loaded.
 Thanks, Mike
