	I have one of these vile creations. You use the "sea" controller,
which used to work under 2.0 (after a fashion). I had to turn off
BLIND_TRANSFER to get it to work with a single drive, and #define SEANOMSGS
1 to get it to work OK with 2 drives. I don't believe the -current driver
will work. It wedges during boot up with mine. If you tell me where you have
the IRQ and memory address is, along with your other hardware addresses, I
could create a kernel for you.
