	man 'ccd' and 'ccdconfig'...I've used it here, but due to some
configuration changes (moved some drives over to an AHA controller), it
no longer seems to work...I think its because of the adaptec 1542CF controller
though, as I've been using it for the past 3+ months or so with little to
no problems on an NCR controller...
