Current aic6360 support uses PIO only with no DMA support.

Is this the "WinSystems" board?  I also know of a board with the NCR
725 chip; I think Ampro makes it.

This chip is supposed to be "SCSI script compatable" with the 8xx
series chips we have support for.  For all I know this means the same
as C source compatable, but it may mean more than that.  (Do any of the
NCR hackers know)?

No, but we hope to have an Intel EV386EX that boots up and talks
TCP-IP over SCSI as a demo for a potential application.  We haven't
gotten beyond starting to collect PC/104 SCSI literature though.  The
only two we've found are the AIC-6360 from WinSystems and the NCR725
from Ampro.
