Subject:   Using seagate driver with Future Domain 950: :-(

Finally I found the time to get my test box up and running with 2.0R.
I put in the new seagate driver posted some time ago by Serge Vakulenko.

Since I own (borrowed) a Future Domain 950, and Serge asked for some feedback
using FD cards, here it comes.

testrig: 386DX/25, 170Mb ESDI, FD950.

When connected to a Micropolis 1375 (140Mb) disk, I get the
following during boot / device probe:

- card is recognised OK (BIOS on card is enabled BTW)

something like: invalid phase CMD out (gets out of view very fast)
	<inquiry values of the disk, but the values are wrong>
and then an endless loop of:
	sea: timeout waiting for arbitration

I switched the 1375 disk for a Digital RRD40 cdrom. No message
loop this time, but the drive was incorrectly identified as holding
a cdrom size 400000 x 2048 blocks. An attempt to mount a CD resulted
in a panic: sea0:2:0 timed out, sending message invalid phase STATIN

Anybody else tried the FD card?

Wilko
