You should know that although our current SCSI code for the DS3100 is
far from perfect as far as "genericness" goes we're making every effort
now and for the future to tend toward "genericness". I took a first and
I mean first stab at it last summer when I wrote the DS3100 code by
defining some configuration bit fields to tell the driver to try
things like synchronous versus asynchronous and the like, but I admit
that it has a ways to go before it allows person A to hook up any
SCSI peripheral B and have A and B plus the DS3100 all be happy! It's
not a trivial feat by any means, but we're trying!!!!
