Hey, I still have 8-bit isa scsi card somewhere.... Last time I fixed that was just before 2.4 because that was when I got it... Don't flush drivers too fast, please... If you kill drivers during 2.5, people will not notice, and even interesting drivers will get killed. Killing them during 2.6.2 might be better. Pavel -- "I do not steal MS software.
