It also has a fibre >channel array attached to it. The driver has been removed now. It was broken at many more places. I've hacked a bit on this beast, you can find several of my patches on http://opensource.sf-tec.de/kernel/ . After all these it was still not usable. Martin K. Petersen (mkp) is writing a replacement driver for this, but I don't know the state of this work. We've tried many things on this beast, but some changed got recursive. This is because many of the functions just return void and now have to check about the return codes because of kmalloc() an such stuff. I wonder where all the users of this thing come from as it went clear that the driver will die :)) Eike
