If you wanted to make it work, you'd have to "convert" this driver to the "normal" scsi code. I don't plan on picking this driver back up until my work on the CAM SCSI layer is complete, so feel free to play with it: i386/scsi/advansys.[c,h] dev/advansys/* i386/isa/adv_isa.c If you have a PCI or EISA card, you'll have to write a PCI probe for it too. -- Justin T.
