Well as I mentioned before it would be good if the distro support was more
widespread before we cutoff the old method. I received a lot of questions
recently from qla2xxx users who where use to doing kernel testing with not
the latest distro version. They ran into issues when trying
linux-2.6.18-rc1 (or git tree versions) along with trying to get the
firmware loading support to work on there distro.
