Hi, all. I just tried 2.1.110 on a machine with the NCR 53c810 SCSI
card, and I get the following messages:

ncr53c8xx: at PCI bus 0, device 16, function 0
ncr53c8xx: 53c810 detected
ncr53c810-0: rev=0x02, base=0xe4000000, io_port=0x6500, irq=9
ncr53c810-0: can't map memory mapped IO region
ncr53c810-0: detaching

and since the root FS is accessed through this controller, the machine
is rooted :-( :-(

On the other hand, with 2.1.104, I get the following:

ncr53c8xx: at PCI bus 0, device 16, function 0
ncr53c8xx: 53c810 detected
ncr53c810-0: rev=0x02, base=0xe4000000, io_port=0x6500, irq=9
ncr53c810-0: ID 7, Fast-10, Parity Checking
ncr53c810-0: restart (scsi reset).
scsi0 : ncr53c8xx - revision 2.5f
scsi : 1 host.

which is definately preferred! Note that 2.1.110 has revision 3.0g of
the NCR driver.

Regards,

Richard....
