Where would one find this tool? > > http://members.aol.com/plscsi/linux/plscsi.tar.gz A noisy list of known bugs in plscsi is: Subject: plscsi issues http://plavarre.blog-city.com/read/579210.htm Without the noise, that signal for Linux today includes: 1) FIXME: Parse the device name to default to O_NONBLOCK for /dev/scd$v /dev/hd$v despite defaulting to O_RDWR | O_NONBLOCK for /dev/sg$n. 2) FIXME: Search more than just /dev/sg* to build the `plscsi -w` list of connected devices. 3) FIXME: Add ioctl CDROM_SEND_PACKET to coexist with ioctl SG_IO, mostly for the sake of ide-cd DVD/CD in Linux 2.4. 4) FIXME: Port back to Linux the master source last released as http://members.aol.com/plscsi/mac/gcsmac.tar.gz 5) FIXME: Rename the .cpp to .c by removing the inline declarations from all the source except the Windows port.
