Ok, here's the story.  The Tekram 390f board does not use the Symbios
reference design (despite having a 53C875 chip), so it won't work (I
think that the problem is specific to Solaris 7).

Here's a message from usenet that may help:

   Tekram is still working with Sun for an official driver for Solaris 7.
   
   Before that, check support at tekram.com.tw for a manual installation
   procedure to work with Solaris 7.

If you find a workaround, please post it here, it would be nice to have in
the archives.
