hmm its actually a 53c770, so i was incorrect there. I wasnt the one
who set it up under linux so i dont know what driver actually makes it
work. I can find out if youd like. Maybe if i get bored someday I'll port
one of them from linux to plan9. The mylex card at least works as a block
device, so could concievably be made to look like a drive fairly easily.

Thanks for the help/de-mystification.

Andrew
