Greetings.
Does anybody know if the scsiinfo utility has been ported
to sparc-linux?

For those who don't know, scsiinfo is a life saving utility
that is found unedr Solaris (but, stupidly enough, not distributed with
taht OS) that writes a nice format.dat entry for any SCSI disk, and
makes it possible to write a disklabel. It has saved my butt more than
once, and now I have found that it does not compile on Linux. (what you
is found on the FAQ, that any combination of tracks/cylinders/heads that
adds up to the unformatted capacity of the disk should work is total bs,
by the way)

For several reasons I cannot/do not want double boot Solaris/Linux, and
I'd rather avoid  the iBCS stuff.

While I did found a Linux utility also called scsiinfo, it does totally
unrelated things.

Any help greatly appretiated.

TIA & cheers,
        alf
