Wonderful!

I'd love to. I have both AlphaStation 500 & 600's on which I'd be
happy to test your ISP driver for you. I beleive the 600's have 2
ISP1020's (along with a tulip) sitting behind a pci<->pci bridge, and
the 500's have one 1020A sitting right on pci0. If the Digital UNIX
boot messages can be believed:
500:
isp0 at pci0 slot 9
isp0: QLOGIC ISP1020A
isp0: Firmware revision 2.10 (loaded by console)
isp0: StorageWorks signal reporting enabled
isp0: StorageWorks SHELF_OK signal transition reported
scsi0 at isp0 slot 0
600:
pci1000 at pci0 slot 8
...

Many thanks for writing this driver!
