I am currently using the sbic driver and have found it to be very
stable. The only problem I do have with it is that when I halt the
system (or it crashes) when the Amiga goes through its autoconfig process
it hangs on the HD check. The system stops and the controller light is
sitting on. This is on my GVP scsi board, which is in my A3000. (I use
the GVP with a 40M drive for swapping...)
Note: When I have sbic_inhibit_sync (Or whatever that flag is) set to 0
this does not happen, things proceed as one would expect.
