I've been using the aha1542 module with kernels 1.3.100 and 1.99.8
fairly successfully. I'm only using disks and tapes (no CD-ROM).

One problem I have noticed is that occasionally, after using the tape
drive for a while, reads from the floppy are occasionally corrupted
(with no indication from the floppy driver -- it's a good job I use MD5
signatures for mail transferred by floppy :-). This has only happened
on two occasions, once with SCSI loaded as modules, and once without.
