Yes, that's right. I had an XIO FC board in my O2000 that died, and I had spare Adaptec FC PCI cards for PCs. I had previously noticed that the SGI PCI FC cards for O2s or O200s were actually the same as the Adaptec, physically, but with an SGI ROM.
So after my XIO FC board died, I added an Adaptec board to my O2K to get my RAID array back online (the whole company was out of work because of that failure).
However though the card appeared in "hinv", it didn't work... After I asked for help on the newsgroups (the system was out of maintenance...) Alexis sent me a private email with the necessary invocation of the kernel rebuild command, and it worked like a charm from there.
