The NCR5380 is a driver core. It's not a driver. The t128 and pas16 and
g_NCR5380 drivers all use it. The g_NCR5380 driver has support for
NCR53c400.

And, yes, you're unlikely to be able to boot off it.

I also have drivers for the T130B (which should work) around here
somewhere. Another thing to try is search the web for ASPI drivers for the
T130B. It was made by Trantor, which was bought by Adaptec which may be
owned by somebody else these days :-)
