Re: Sparc driver changes afoot for 2.6.18

I converted most of the SBUS drivers.  All the networking and SCSI
SBUS drivers are converted.  There are some odds and ends left such as
the FC4 drivers but those are only half working anyways.


 Hello David,
 
     Exciting stuff.  I appreciate all of the work that you are doing.  Just wanted to let you know.
 
     I'm still hoping for FC4 !  My E3500's 144G (8 x 18.2G) fiber channel raid array is completely useless under Linux.  To run Linux on the box, I attached an 18.2G drive to some scsi chain in the back..
 
     Do you think that it is realistic that the FC4 stuff will ever work well enough that it is safe to use for "home use"?
 
     If you would like any testing, please let me know.  I haven't fired up my sun box in ages, but I could power it up, update my gentoo and grab a new kernel on a few days notice.  I don't leave it run 24/7, since it can heat my house in the winter, and it's summer right now ;)
