I don't know if the 6.6 roms by themselves are available, but I
purchased one of the new 2091-50's a few weeks ago. It has the 6.6 roms
in it. It appears the interrupt problem and the reselection problem are
fixed.

I say appears, as I normally have the Quantum 50M and a ST-157N hooked
up. The Seagate definitely does NOT support reselection, but I leave it
on for the Quantum.  I did hook up a Quantum 105M from another 2500
last week (with reselection turned on) and successfully transfered
files with both Quantums hooked up at the same time, but I wouldn't say
it was a thorough test at all. I didn't want to push my luck, so I
unplugged it as soon as I finished the transfer :^(
