SCSI devices

[Rob Healey]

	Has anybody attempted to put a SCSI tape device like an exebyte(tm)
	or DAT on Amix? Did it work? Did it fail? Did sparks fly out
	of the boxes?

	How about CDROM's and maybe R/W optical a la NeXT? Is the SCSI
	driver flexible enough to take arbitrary disks, tapes and misc.
	SCSI toys?

	How about a fancy, front end config/format utility for disks
	and tapes to make it easy for people to add generic SCSI
	devices? Well, maybe that's too extreme... Maybe some good
	technical docs on the SCSI driver and the ioctl's I could tickle
	it with? The maybe some docs on these other mysterious devices
	in /dev like noise, cage, amiga, tiga? etc. /dev/cage huh, is this
	where the mouse is kept till X or some other app needs it? B^).

	As a tangent, can I kill off menud safely? It appears that all it does
	is print out a warning message to a VT when you log out so neophytes
	know what is going on. I'd like to get rid of it so I have blank
	VT's I can switch to that will "fake" a screenblanker...
