sym53c416 driver

[AndersØstergårdJensen]

Hi,

Actually, I would like to start hacking kernels, and maybe the scsi
subsystem would be a good place for me to start.
Do you recommend any documents I can start reading? I'm quite good at C,
so the only problem is the knowledge of hacking hardware.

Digitally Yours,
