See the 875.tar on
http://www.cotswold.demon.co.uk/dist/ncr/src/index.htm
It can be #ifdeffed to be a fileserver driver as well.
There are at least 4 file servers in the world (!) using this driver.
Note that you need to add some extra space to the kernel page map in
addition to the
physical memory; say 1Mb. I really must add this to the web page.

our file server at work has been up for over a year
using nigel's 53c8xx driver with a symbios fast-wide
controller and some variety of 4.2gb ibm ultrastar
fast-wide drive.

Hello,
Has anybody heard about doing a file server with
scsi NCR53C8XX controller?
There is a support for 9pc 9pcdisk, but I can not
find it for 9pcfs.
