I tried to use Qlogic wide SE SCSI SBus controllers. First tied one in Sparcstation 5 (sparc32) with etch and sarge installers, then tried another in E3500. Both tries on SS5 hung when loadin qlogicpti module. E3500 conf doesn't autoload SBus drivers and the card was properly inserted only after installation, so I tried to modprobe qlogicpti after booting up. This also results in a hang but outputs that much on console before hanging. Maybe the error handling spinlock lockup gives a clue to someone...
