	I have obtained a scsi driver for use with unix from the 
comp.periphs.scsi newsgroup, but I have not been able to get it running under 
minix.  It was written for a system V machine, and most of the include files
do not exist, oh have to have system V specific code to work properly.  I
would be interested in finding out if anyone out there is using minix with 
a scsi drive, and if so would you please post the sources to your driver,
I really don't care if it is perfect, or has bugs, but right now the only way 
I can use my machine is with the demo disk instead of the 1.5.10 distribution I
have.     

	Question two.  Why does the demo disk recognize the scsi drive, and
allow to create a filesystem on it, yest not allow for the dosread, dosdir, and
doswrite commands?  So far I have mixed the demo disk and distribution as 
far as it will go, but this is getting thin fast, and I need a scsi driver.

	Thanks.
