   Before I go any further, has anyone been sucessful with a 
   SCSI Jaz via PCMCIA.  How did you config up the kernel.  
   All as modules?  High level stuff (the fact that I'm using a 
   disk) in the kernel while the low level (aha152x) as modules?  
   Or the whole shooting match in the kernel.  I ask because 
   if you configure the SCSI into the kernel, it looks for 
   devices long before the PCMCIA is loaded up.  I wonder if 
   when doing so it doesn't shut down the SCSI after it
   can't find what the PCMCIA has yet to provide.

I've successfully used SCSI Jaz via PCMCIA; I was using a bus toaster
SCSI card.  The core SCSI drivers were loaded in the kernel because the
laptop is occasionally docked into a docking station.
