But 712 only has 53C710 on LASI (using > the 53C700 driver) so I guess it can't be related. It should be. The c110 also have such LASI ASIC chip ;) and on its scsi port I connected a CRW drive. This week-end I tried to uncompress-untar the src of my working kernel tree burned on a cd. but the operation faill= ed with an i/o error. At this moment, I didn't check more (too much focused on the ncr 720 patc= h) but I just check on my hpux b180 and there is any pb to read the cd. So either the drive is realy broken (but I already reach to burn and scan a full 600Mb cd-rwwith a previous kernel) or there is a pb with 53c7[01]0 driver too? James can you give us your opinion about this ?
