    Subject[Announce] sg3_utils-1.18 available
    sg3_utils is a package of command line utilities for sending
    SCSI (and some ATA) commands to devices. This package targets
    the lk 2.6 and lk 2.4 series. In the lk 2.6 series these
    utilities (except sgp_dd) can be used with any devices that
    support the SG_IO ioctl.

    This version adds the sg_map26 utility which maps between
    a primary scsi device node (e.g. /dev/hdc) and the
    corresponding scsi generic node (e.g. /dev/sg5) or vice
    versa. Uses major/minor numbers and sysfs (thus only works
    for the lk 2.6 series).
    sg_dd now takes iflag and oflag options similar to those
    found in recent GNU dd versions.
    "sg_inq -rr" outputs an ATA IDENTIFY response in a form
    suitable to be piped to "hdparm --Istdin" for decoding.
    See CHANGELOG for more information.

    A tarball, rpm and deb can be found at (see table 2):
