Summary: Gigatape on 4.1.1

The problem was that the Sun tries to use the Gigatape with
the SCSI synchronous mode. And it doesn't work! I hope our vendor
will setup the Gigatape to correctly use this new protocol!
 
You can disable this mode with the following patch:
 
        # adb -w /vmunix
        scsi_options?W 0x58
        scsi_options: 0x78 = 0x58
 
Thanks to stern@east.sun.com who sent the patch.
Thanks also to mis@usenix.org and tilman@indetech.com.
