SCSI Driver

[ekl@sdf.lonestar.org]

=================================================
A few years ago, I wrote a hard disk driver of my own, called CBHD.
It has been published as part of a book that I wrote ("Scheibenkleister"),
together with other hard disk maintenance software. At the time,
the book and the driver were very successful in Germany.
=================================================

I'm in favor of this.  Also, we can steal the Linux SCSI driver and some
of its other things and hack them up (not steal the code - learn from their
code).  I am not in favor of 64 bit block numbers though.  Most file systems
are only 16 bit (tosfs and the original minix file system, although I can't
be sure of MiNT's minixfs or any V2 system) and are limited to 32 or 64MB.
64 bit would be ... well ... more than enough.   32 bit is a limit of 4GB
per device.  While I'm sure there are 4GB device around, I think we can
wait to implement that.   Consider that a 68K can't work with 64 bit numbers.
Efficiency would be a problem I think!!
