Aha and indeed. In Justin's sequencer, one of the FASTMODE flags is
FAILDIS. This would alter the value of just one bit, and might indeed
cause a parity/crash. Maybe? I try it...
and EUREKA! It WORKS! My system suddenly has two whole scsi devices.
It promptly dies (possibly because of a timeout induced by the absurd
delays I introduced), but I'll bet that if Doug and/or Patrick
converts the middle FASTMODE flag to FAILDIS on an unhacked driver, it
will magically work (or at least die further on).
I'll try it myself in a minute, but I didn't save a particularly clean
original (:-< and will have to put back the original and relayer the
patches before making just the one change.
