I don't think the 64bit build supports 32bit userland yet but it will probably be trivial to add.

You can boot (from a CD) to "live" mode to see if your SCSI card is supported , again *IF* you are lucky and the boot don't go to KDL...
I remember the old good BeOS had support for SCSI like 2940W/UW

What about SCSI?
Yeah, really interesting. But does it support SCSI adapters? I've been unable to find reliable information about whether and which SCSI adapters Haiku supports. I've tried browsing the source too but didn't find it there either. Maybe I wasn't looking in the right places. All the same - does anyone have any pointers about Haiku's SCSI support. I really want to try it on an old 2xPentiumII/300 machine but it only has SCSI drives.

Very interesting.. in the meanwhile I m getting KDL's while even trying to boot Haiku on old hardware such P3 systems...(while ZETA works perfect there!)

Haiku OS Ported To 64-bit, Picks Up OpenJDK Support
Phoronix: Haiku OS Ported To 64-bit, Picks Up OpenJDK Support
The Haiku operating system, the open-source BeOS-compatible platform, was successful in receiving a working x86_64 port this summer. Haiku 64-bit is working, but not all applications and drivers have yet been ported...
