Old hardware

I've been given an old server to revive:

	HP NetServer LC II
	PII266

It's got the onboard Adaptec AIC 8770P SCSI controller.

Problem is that this controller does not seem to be noticed/detected
by the boot B floppy.

FreeBSD 4.4, booted from the distribution CD-ROM has no
problem seeing the SCSI controller and hence the disks.

Is there any way to install OpenBSD on these old war horses?
