Hi,

I'm writing a driver to support AMD am53c974 PCscsi-PCI,
which is used by Tekram DC-390. The driver is based
on esp_isa.c and also uses the ncr53c9x MI code. 
It seems to work on my PC though it does not support
DMA and is __very__ slow.

A diff for current 1.3E sources is
http://www.ceres.dti.ne.jp/~tsutsui/diff-amd-1.3E_980515
** Note: This code is not tested enough so USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. **

Now I'm wondering what device name is proper.
NetBSD uses `asc' and `esp' for ncr53c9x based chips,
but they are defined in files.isa, files.macppc etc.
so we can't define same device across different busses.
FreeBSD uses `amd', so currently my code uses `amd'.

Any suggestions?
