Hi,

I am new to linux as well as this group. So please pardon me
if this question was asked and answered earlier. I am looking 
to setup my PC with a SCSI adapter (PCI) and am evaluating various 
adapters available in the market and checking if drivers are 
available for them. I run Linux 2.0.32 on my machine.
Now my Qs are:
	- I see SCSI and QLogic driver sources under
	  /usr/src/linux/drivers/scsi. Are they built-in to the
	  kernel? What adapters go with them? What do I need to do
	  if I choose, say, a PCI-to-Fast/Wide SCSI adapter?

	- I found some Fiber channel adapters available in the web.
	  But is there any driver support available?

	- Can you guys please give me pointers to writing device
	  drivers in Linux?

Appreciate the information very much.

Thanks,
Chidu
