Hi Christian,
here's what Finn asked me to run as tests:
# dmesg | grep this_id > nvram.out
# cat /proc/driver/nvram >> nvram.out
# hexdump -C /dev/nvram >> nvram.out
# cp /dev/nvram /tmp/nvram
# cp /tmp/nvram /dev/nvram
# md5sum /dev/nvram /tmp/nvram >> nvram.out
What you sent so far looks OK. I've tested the change of SCSI ID
(using EmuTOS) along with a trivial patch to atari_scsi.c (replace
offset 14 by 16) and the driver now uses the stored ID properly. I'll
sent kernels to test Finn's NVRAM patch for regression ASAP.
Thanks for your offer of help!
Cheers,
Michael

Anyone with a suitable Atari, i.e. ATARIHW_PRESENT(TT_CLK), who can boot
both TOS and Linux could resolve the question. (Perhaps with an emulator?)
Any old kernel binary would do, since atari_scsi should print either
"HOSTID=n" or "this_id n" at startup.
If n doesn't agree with what TOS says about the host's SCSI ID, then I
think a trivial patch is safe enough. Especially if cat /proc/driver/nvram
produces a "SCSI host ID : m" that does agree with TOS.
