In looking over the 1.3.99 patches I noticed a change to the devices.txt file. There it comments on a new major device number for SyQuest Drives (EZ135).
No place else, however, can I find any logic or support for them. I have one and I know that it just appears as any other IDE device. Additional support seems unneeded.
Why then, is there a reserved major number for it? It doesn't seem to /do/ anything .... unless, perhaps, we're talking about the Parallel port version? (In which case, that should be noted in device.txt).
Just a little confused ... (as always) ...
Gee! 1.3.99 ... we're getting close ... lets just hope we don't have a Simpering Weasel version between now and then ....
