Hello Tuomas,
apologies for dropping off the conversation for so long - I only
returned from an overseas trip with only sporadic net access three
days ago.
What exactly does your device support - SCSI-1, SCSI-2 CCS, SCSI-2 or
higher? (Apologies for asking this - it will be in one of your old
logs but I cannot easily read these here.)
The drive you would find by searching with the model number in the
logs would point you to an IDE drive, which is actually connected to
a bridge adapter (ACard AEC-7720U) that supports full Ultra SCSI
features. I also have a 'real' ST51080N that supports Fast SCSI-2
that I've also tested with the driver to no avail. I will double
check again with the real SCSI drive to ascertain that the bridge
adapter is not the culprit, just to make sure.
I'm fully aware the info would have been in the logs, but all I had to
work with was a dodgy XP box at my in-law's place, and not a lot of
time to poke around.
You have established that the SCSI bridge is responsible for a few odd
warnings but nothing serious, so I'd say we give your patched driver a
good workout on a number of Amiga m68k porter boxes, Unless you beat
me to it, I would suggest I provide a patch against Geert's latest
m68k development tree for someone else to integrate into the Debian
kernel package (would be a highly experimental one). Does that sound
fair?
Go ahead. I assume you can now open the attachments? If you could just
make one small modification; all controllers but Oktagon use a 40 MHz
clock. The zorro_esp driver versions I've been spamming to this list all
have carried a bad 20 MHz clock setting for the Blizzard 2060 board.
I've actually been able to compile the driver into the kernel and use it
for root fs (on my Blizzard 1230-IV).
