In the meantime, I worked around the Oops by using a tiny disk on the onboard IDE controller, but I wouldn't quite call removing the card a fix for the problem.
The thing is, I have no real experience in C programming, although I sometimes read a little kernel source code and stuff. Right now I have a bit of trouble with my studies, but once that's settled I can do some reading about SCSI, Linux, the works. Doesn't seem to be anyone using 2.6 with Future Domain cards anyway, so I'm not in a hurry. But just for completeness, it would be nice to have that driver cleaned up. It's in Linux' tree, after all. I'll build a testing box with ISA bus some time soon and try some debugging.
