Peder,
   Interesting. Thanks.

   This method allows you to change the scheduler for an individual
drive. I presume that my method changes the default scheduler for
everything, but I have not tested that.

   One thing that seems to not exist in ck-sources that I used
successfully in one of the kernels I ran that has Ingo's stuff in it
was the ability to set certain ISRs to threaded or non-threaded
operation. I used to echo a 1 or 0 to /proc/irq/5/hdsp (or something
like that) and this would make the ISR threaded or non-threaded.

   Soes naythign like this exist in ck-sources?

Thanks,
Mark
