I understand that The LSI seems not to want to let me put the code that I
have referred to their NDA documents under GPL.

Beside that still need to add some code to filo to make it understand
scsi_disk.

I will try to talk to them again.

wonderful! I've commited this to the V2 CVS and moved the Trident
Blade3d driver there as well. I changed the directory layout a little
bit to suit northbridge/southbridge/mainboard by using
driver/vendor/device as the path to the device init code. 

What is the right way of getting this code into a LinuxBIOS build?
Should there be some "driver" directive like there's "northbridge" and
"southbridge"? Or is there some better idea?

If we can now get hands on loading firmware into the LSI1020/1030, we'd
be prepared for a lot of nice opteron servers and possibly many others.

Stefan
