-
- 1. Does NetBSD support my device?
-
- This section lists all the hardware-devices, which are known to
- work or NOT to work with NetBSD (see comments).
-
- IMPORTANT NOTE: PLEASE HELP TO UPDATE THIS LIST BY PROVIDING
- COMMENTS AND NEW INFO. IN RETURN, I WILL POST UPDATES AND TRY TO MAKE
- THE LIST AVAILABLE TO ANYONE INTERESTED.
-
- IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: This list is not guaranteed to be 100%
- correct.
-
-
-
- 1.1. Supported Harddisks
-
- Currently, only SCSI controllers are supported, but support for
- IDE- or AT-drives is being worked on.
-
- If your harddisk is connected via SCSI, please report if it works
- in both, async and sync-mode.
-
- Note that the comments are left out, if the device works fine and
- reliable!

- A4000/040, but I'm sure that was the fault of the
- GVP+A4000 combination. I had some mechanical problems
- with my particular drive (some guys have all the bad
- luck :() and exchanged it, while I was at it, for it's
- bigger brother.

- Approx Cost: ~1050 DM (german marks - internal)
- Interface: SCSI
- Hostadapter: A3000 internal
- Informant: Marquart.C.Fanz@zfe.siemens.de
- Comments: Tape drive does not function with standard NETBSD
- kernel, because of the mode select commmand in file
- sys/arch/amiga/dev/st.c. The drive is set to SCSI-1
- with SCSI-2 response data format on default and does
- not accept the mode selcet command in the ..init (?)
- function.
- Comment out the mode select call will do it for NETBSD
- because the drive automatically recognize the size of
- the tape cartridge. I am using 150/250 tape cartridges
- with NETBSD. Only 'mt' doesn't work (unknown type 15)
- i.e. density 0x0F QIC-320/525. I am working on the
- correct mode select for this drive (and for general
- tape setup for ANSI X3.131-1986 (SCSI-1) and SCSI-2
- (Revision 10k) when I find the time.
- SCSI-2 might go, but because WANGTEK has switched to
- new ACA (advanced common architecture, i.e. no SCSI
- select jumper any more) I don't know how to switch to
- SCSI-2.
