 Hi,
 
 As I've mentioned on d-k, the sbus devices found in some early Ultras are 
 not properly sysfs-trained. As a result, yaird currently fails to include 
 the SCSI driver if the controller is an sbus device. As modifying the 
 drivers may be too complicated, a possible workaround is to always 
 force-include the esp.ko driver (I believe it is the only sbus-based SCSI 
 controller) on sparc.

If anyone volunteers to test the code I could look into converting sbus
to the driver model.

Hi Cristoph,

I don't have any sbus hardware myself, but I should be able to build 
kernel packages including any patches you produce and we'll definitely 
be able to find people on d-sparc to test them out. Your effort will 
be greatly appreciated too.


Best regards,
