I am trying to configure the kernel on my Motorola 3840 system for a
tape drive at SCSI ID 6 on the MVME327 board. I modified the vme327
description file as shown below. Now whenever I try to access the
drive through major device 86, the kernel panics with a bus error
(I think -- sorry, I don't have the exact error message handy).
Tape drives at IDs 4 and 5 work fine.
Has anyone else done this sucessfully? The configuration shown below
is nearly identical to the one for ID 5, except the major device number
is 86 instead of 85.
Thanks!
