[comp.unix.sysv386] Dell SVR4 and WD7000 SCSI card

eesrajm@cc.brunel.ac.uk (Andrew J Michael) (06/03/91)

I think some time ago there was some conversation on this group about using
the WD7000 SCSI card with SVR4.  Did anyone solve the problem ?  Since I am
using Dell SVR4 rather than the AT&T I don't have a WD7000 driver in the
kernel.  I also asked Columbia Data Products about the availability of a
SVR4 driver for the WD7000, but was told "real soon now".

I'd quite like to get this card going, so any suggestions are welcome.  And
yes I do know that the WD7000 ASC and WD7000 FASST aren't quite the same
thing.  Drivers for either would be acceptable.

Thanks in advance

Andy Michael

=================

Microport SVR4 has a WD7000 FASST driver.

	Which is how I eventually solved the WD 7000 FASST2 SCSI building
affair, discussed in detail on the network a few weeks ago. Both Microport
and Columbia Data Products combined efforts to lift me over the hurtle.
