Gibbs modified the generic SCSI code to deal with 16 devices on the WIDE SCSI bus, I put code into the NCR PCI SCSI driver, to take advantage of this feature. If you got a NCR 53c825 and WIDE SCSI peripherals, you should be able to use SCSI IDs beyond 7 now, and to have upto a total of 15 drives on the SCSI bus. Since I have neither of them, I can't do the tests, only make sure that it doesn't break 53c810 support. So, if you got the hardware, please do this test as soon as possible and please send boot messages, if possible. (Please boot with "-v" at the boot: prompt, since this will result in important additional log info.)
