I don't know if I'm the "one user" or not :), but yes your aha1542.c did fix the
problems here. The new scsi error handling in 2.2 SHOULD also fix the problems
as the older patches in that area worked for tape, and apparently disk.
Sorry, the tape drive is back on the file server now we've sorted out the problems and
I can't check 2.2-pre performance.
And, if anyone were feeling bad about SCSI under Linux, UnixWare 7
was much much worse ;).
At least with Linux we got the problem fixed in 2 days.
