Folk,
One of those depressingly simply questions for you; I _know_ it's simple
but despite a good search I haven't found any clues on how to do it.
My BT958 / Quantum Stratus combination occasionally barfs with Tagged
Queueing failures. The firmware on each is as good as it gets. I'm running
2.0.33 and Buslogic driver 2.0.10.
Simply, all the references to this problem say "limit tagged queueing to
7." Now the biggie: How?
Any help greatly appreciated.

With driver BusLogic 2.0.10, you need the driver compiled into the kernel and
boot with the command line "BusLogic=0,7". If you upgrade to the new 2.0.11
driver, you can do this with modules as well, using either the lilo.conf
syntax:
append = "BusLogic=QueueDepth:7"
or as a module loading option:
insmod BusLogic.o 'BusLogic_Options="QueueDepth:7"'
Consult README.BusLogic for further examples.
