It's a horrible mess and much > much worse than i2o_scsi. Primarily because the i²o drivers didnt use to handle the dpt devices. They speak a slightly odd dialect of i²o and that tripped us up. I need to check 2.6 has all the 2.4 core i²o stuff in place. With that done then I think doing some testing and losing dpt_i2o is doable. Alan
