^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 8) ------
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 9) The driver has been tested with CD-R and CD-R/W drives. These should
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 10) be safe to use. Testing with hard disks has not been done to any
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 11) great degree and caution should be exercised if you want to attempt
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 12) to use this driver with hard disks.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 13)
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 14) This is a 2.5 only driver. For a 2.4 driver please see the original
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 15) driver (which this driver started from) at

^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 22) Parameters
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 23) ----------
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 24) The driver uses the settings from the EEPROM set in the SCSI BIOS
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 25) setup. If there is no EEPROM, the driver uses default values.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 26) Both can be overridden by command line parameters (module or kernel
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 27) parameters).
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 28)
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 29) The following parameters are available:
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 30)
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 31) safe
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 32) Default: 0, Acceptable values: 0 or 1
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 33)
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 34) If safe is set to 1 then the adapter will use conservative
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 35) ("safe") default settings. This sets:
