Ah ok. my bad. I thought sym1 drove 53c720 but that's wrong.
Someone might consider porting the PDC_INITIATOR support to ncr53c8xx.
Should be a cut/paste from sym1 or sym2 driver.

OK - I've been using sym2 on both c3k and A500. I'm comfortable with it.
Sounds like I should use it on B180 as well.
Thanks for clarification richard!
