Hi Michael,

I need to confirm this from a data book of the older (pre-fast)
revisions of this chip family. but since as Kars also states, the core
driver default for the 16 bit transfer size is 64k as well, I very much
suspect the same behaviour for the older revisions.

According to ftp://bitsavers.informatik.uni-stuttgart.de/components/ncr/scsi/NCR53C90ab.pdf,
on the NCR 53C90A programming the transfer counter to 0 also means
64k. That's the oldest data book I could find.
But the Zorro driver assumes a fast variant of the chip anyway (the
clock frequency is hard coded to 40 MHz), so this point is a little
moot.

Kind regards,

Kars.
