744.2more than the release notes say.....FIREBL::LEEDSFrom VAXinated to AlphaholicMon Feb 24 1997 14:0834
Better late than never... having lived through a major benchmark using 
HSZ50s, we learned that there is a lot more to telling Digital UNIX about 
HSZ50s than just editing cam_data.c... the release notes are very 
misleading. You actually have to modify 3 files:

   cam_data.c, devio.h, and simport.o

There is a patch to do this, from the Digital UNIX Notes conference:

       <<< TURRIS::DISK$NOTES_PACK2:[NOTES$LIBRARY]DIGITAL_UNIX.NOTE;1 >>>
                               -< DIGITAL UNIX >-

    The patch is available on guru. Contact Dick Goodwin.
        
    I've enclosed the info from Dick

    Bill Arvidson asked me to package up some test patches for the v32x
    hsz50 support (devio.h and cam_data.c), so I did, and they are
    available in:
    
            guru:/usr/guest/misc/osf/hsz50/*.tar
    
    I believe this directory is available by anonymous ftp (/usr/guest/ is
    the
    anonymous ftp root).
