Once again, sorry if I caused a lot of confusion with my private philosophical
views about HD Setup and third party vendor firmware sending back SCSI
information that the A/UX dev driver don't understand. I'm not
connected to A/UX engineering, and have not been in touch with the HD Setup
development, so I can't comment on things that may or may not happen.
Anyway, the issue with third party vendor hard disks are important. And
I'm sure people from A/UX engineering are listenining to this debate and taking
notes.
