If you want protocol handling, the linux driver isn't where you want to
look. The driver gets real confused when, say, a SCSI-1 device interrupts a
command it doesn't understand (which is legal but annoying), or when a
SCSI-2 device doesn't respond *exactly* to the standard protocol (did
someone say quantum?)...

I'm sure it would be productive to work together on this stuff, but that
sort of requires that people be working on it, and that's kinda rare in
m68k-land.


Happy Canada Day! (though technically that ended slightly over 3 hours ago)

Cheers - Tony :)
