Yet another scsi problem met on linux2.0.0 :
I have a multilun scsi printer/scanner (CANON CLC10) with strange
lun configuration :
lun 0 : scanner
lun 1 : nothing
lun 2 : nothing
lun 3 : printer
lun 4 : nothing
lun 5 : nothing
lun 6 : nothing
lun 7 : nothing
unfortunately , when linux probe all lun it give up to the first
bad lun , so i can never see my printer.
so i have done a little patch , which is just removing the break
within the lun probe loop. Boot is probably a little longer for
standard device , but it works !.
maybe is it better to do a configuration option for this ??
