I don't believe this is a VMware bug.  According to the draft ATAPI spec the proper
response to a feature request - when the feature is not available - it is put the
controller into an Abort error state.  It is the driver's responsibility to dig its
way out of this condition.

I may dig into the code and make the error handling more robust, but I would rather
wait and see what sort of SCSI support VMware cooks up.

Has anybody made any headway on the ethernet support?
