Subject: Re: bus resets (was "NOT READY")

 * Several adapters support SCSI_RESET to reset a specific target;
 * you can get at it through "scsi_reset_target(sc_link)".
 * You can start a unit with "scsi_start_unit(sc_link, flags)".
 * In all cases you will then have to hope the system goes into the retry
 * forever logic based on the "device in the process of coming ready".

Thanks, but do you think you can write a short program to do that?
I'm really not well-versed in the kernel stuff, you know. ;)
