Well, and this (sorry, Michael) is the reason why i've never committed it to the FreeBSD tree, although i have promised so to Michael. :( I'm fairly reluctant to import a second set of lower-level SCSI routines into FreeBSD which is basically performing the same function as we've already got elsewhere. So if somebody would rewrite the driver to use the FreeBSD bottom layer, this would be great. (OTOH, i assume Justin's current CAM work would make this obsolete as well, sigh.) Other than this, i can confirm that the driver is doing it fine, i've once been testing it. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
