Interested in having SCSI PCI on your AmigaONE system? Click to find out more! I am preparing to code a driver for a PCI SCSI card, that will run under OS4 and be optimised for the AmigaONE. I am taking submissions on which card I should code for. Please write to: PCI-SCSI@amigaone.co.nz

SCSI for your AmigaONE ?? : Comment 7 of 71ANN.lu

What, if anything, came of that nice rant in favor of Symbios/LSI someone let off with back in the early planning for the A1/OS4?
That said, if we want guaranteed support from PPCBoot (booting from SCSI HDs, and perhaps CD-ROMs, though it's hard to say if their support extends that far) on day one, it looks like we have all of one choice:
[From the PPCBoot README]
- SCSI Support:
At the moment only there is only support for the
SYM53C8XX SCSI controller; define
CONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX to enable it.
Insert rant about "Hm, if certain effort had been spent putting Linux in ROM, PPCBoot would only have to launch long enough to read the Flash device, and Linux could load just long enough to take advantage of its broad hardware support to get OS4 bootstrapped off whatever you'd like." Of course, it might add some delay to the boot time- having a fully functional PPCBoot with broad support for Adaptec, LSI/Symbios, QLogic, and every breed of Firewire and SAS controller coming to market would be great- but it'd have shaved down the wait for the hardware by a lot, while adding value for the actual *NIX market...
