Search the scsi mailing list or just ask there. Someone has a test device
thingy ( it's an option when configging the kernel ), but I've also seen
let's beat on your scsi system types of programs mentioned. That was at
least 2 years ago. I think one was most of a digital program written for
digital *nix or whatever it's name was that week.
