Alan,

Try putting four adapters into a system all at once with 32 drives, and
you will see all sorts of bugs. I do not see problems with a single board,
other than gendisk reporting junk. If it's the scsi layer, then the driver
must not be calling the sd driver. I will attempt to get on the phone with
Adam, and get these issues resolved.
