I have reason to use a USB to SCSI adapter under FBSD. I have a USB2Xchange from Adaptec, but (as usual for adaptec) it requires a firmware load, which appears harder in usb than in PCI. Does anyone know how to do this? (Should we have a generic firmware loader similar in concept to the ndis converter?) A not-as-preferred alternative would be a PC card scsi unit; this won't work on the desktop computers, though. For my immediate application (streaming tape) I could tolerate a userland driver under ugen. For disks this wouldn't work without a more general kernel block-device structure (or a userland link back to the cam/xpt layer, analogous to the tunnel net driver, which couldn't be *too* hard and could be desirable). Kernel attach message is: ugen0: Adaptec product 0x2002, rev 2.00/1.00, addr 2 My kernel has ugen/umass/uhid/ums/ucom/uplcom/umodem compiled in, so this (which should show somewhere?) isn't being recognized. 1. Has anyone else tried this (or wanted to...)? 2. Absent a way to use this device, what would work (I know about slimscsi; it is less desirable since I can't use it on my desktop systems)? -- PeteReceived on Mon Jan 03 2005 - 19:58:20 UTC
