RE: Wrong SCSI bus scanning

[Cress, Andrew R]

Jan,

The sym53c8xx and ncr53c8xx drivers depend on virtually the same chipsets,
so there is some potential for confusion in detecting adapters that do/dont
belong to each driver.  This causes confusion for the corresponding drivers
in NT also.
Check the scan code in each driver.

Subject: Wrong SCSI bus scanning

Hi!

For me, SCSI bus # 2 gets double-assigned. Physical layout
is currently:

	Bus 0:	AIC7xxx (U160 onboard)
		- ID0:	IBM DDYS-T18350N
		
	Bus 1:	AIC7xxx (2nd U160 onboard bus)
		- unused
	
	Bus 2:	sym53c8xx ('875)
		- ID1:	PLEXTOR CD-R PX-W1210S
		- ID2:	PLEXTOR CD-ROM PX-40TS
		- ID3:	PIONEER DVD-ROM DVD-305

	Bus 3:	ncr53c8xx ('810)
		- ID0:	HP CD-Writer 6020
		- ID1:	PLASMON CDR4220

The U160 controller attaches to my boot disk, so it is compiled-in.
Both other drivers are modules.

When I insert modules for busses #2 and #3, *both* of them get
bus #2 assigned:

...which is obviously wrong. Any suggestion on where to start
to search the bug?
