    Does that apply to all revisions of the XMI SCSI?

 That applies to all revisions.  There are no VAX drivers for the
 card in VMS.  

 AFAIK, there is no VAX-compatible *firmware*,
 so you cannot even hope to write your own
 drivers ... 
Yes, I forgot to mention the lack of firmware as well.

I suppose you *COULD* write a driver that lets you use the board
for non-booting devices if you had enough information available.
