Sorry, I'm smoking crack, just got back from christmas festivities. I was thinking of the sab serial driver, not fas. Scott Long is working on making the existing amd(4) driver work with the scsi controller in Ultra 1s and Ultra 2s, which avoids having to convert the fas driver to cam. Last I heard he's making progress, but not finished yet. Jake To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-sparc" in the body of the message
