When can we expect to see support for disconnection in the NCR
driver?  I'm not in a huge hurry <nudge, nudge>, but it seems
as though this would greatly improve performance with multiple
drives.  If I had a clue, I'd implement it myself.  Is this a
difficult thing to add for the NCR53c810, or just not a priority
issue right now?

One more thing.. I have an AHA1542C in addition to the on-board
NCR53c810 (486 Saturn II board), and I have had *no* luck in
getting linux to find both hosts.  It sees the 1542, but not
the ncr.  I tried lilo command line options without success.

One thing that springs to mind is the fact that there are no
devices on the 1542.  At present it is acting as a *very*
expensive floppy controller :)
