24 bit region which is specified by a mask of 0x00fffffe.
-5.5) 53c7xx=
-------------
-
-Syntax: 53c7xx=<sub-options...>
-
-These options affect the A4000T, A4091, WarpEngine, Blizzard 603e+,
-and GForce 040/060 SCSI controllers on the Amiga, as well as the
-builtin MVME 16x SCSI controller.
-
-The <sub-options> is a comma-separated list of the sub-options listed
-below.
-
-5.5.1) nosync
--------------
-
-Syntax: nosync:0
-
- Disables sync negotiation for all devices. Any value after the
- colon is acceptable (and has the same effect).
-
-5.5.2) noasync
---------------
-
-[OBSOLETE, REMOVED]
-
-5.5.3) nodisconnect
--------------------
-
-Syntax: nodisconnect:0
-
- Disables SCSI disconnects. Any value after the colon is acceptable
- (and has the same effect).
-
-5.5.4) validids
----------------
-
-Syntax: validids:0xNN
-
- Specify which SCSI ids the driver should pay attention to. This is
- a bitmask (i.e. to only pay attention to ID#4, you'd use 0x10).
- Default is 0x7f (devices 0-6).
-
-5.5.5) opthi
-5.5.6) optlo
-------------
-
-Syntax: opthi:M,optlo:N
-
- Specify options for "hostdata->options". The acceptable definitions
- are listed in drivers/scsi/53c7xx.h; the 32 high bits should be in
- opthi and the 32 low bits in optlo. They must be specified in the
- order opthi=M,optlo=N.
-
-5.5.7) next
------------
-
- No argument. Used to separate blocks of keywords when there's more
- than one 53c7xx host adapter in the system.

-
-Use the following options to disable options in the SCSI driver.
-
-Using amiboot for example.....
-
-To disable Synchronous Negotiation....
-
- amiboot -k kernel 53c7xx=nosync:0
-
-To disable Disconnection....
-
- amiboot -k kernel 53c7xx=nodisconnect:0
-
-To disable certain SCSI devices...
-
- amiboot -k kernel 53c7xx=validids:0x3F
-
- this allows only device ID's 0,1,2,3,4 and 5 for linux to handle.
- (this is a bitmasked field - i.e. each bit represents a SCSI ID)
-
-These commands work on a per controller basis and use the option 'next' to
-move to the next controller in the system.
-
-e.g.
- amiboot -k kernel 53c7xx=nodisconnect:0,next,nosync:0
-
- this uses No Disconnection on the first controller and Asynchronous
- SCSI on the second controller.
-
-Known Issues:
-
-Two devices are known not to function with the default settings of using
-synchronous SCSI. These are the Archive Viper 150 Tape Drive and the
-SyQuest SQ555 removeable hard drive. When using these devices on a controller
-use the 'nosync:0' option.
-
-Please try these options and post any problems/successes to me.
