SunOS, unlike Linux, isn't as particular about

the whole IDENT requirement). It's not that Linux _couldn't_ support,

the old days (I started with 0.97 with an embedded SCSI drive).
Actually, someone did write a Linux device driver module for the ACB
series SCSI-MFM bridges. It dates from kernel 2.0.x days, but might be
useful if anyone is enterprising enough to pen an update.
