Hang on a sec... what Grant's saying is that *card-mode* dino is never
used for SCSI controllers, but on the B160L it would probably be
*chip-mode* dino.

Does this mean that all GSC SCSI expansion cards are Zalon based?

So what Helge has isn't a PCI card specifically, Dino and the 53c8xx are
all on the motherboard.

Does Dino handle IO memory mapping differently for chip or card mode?
