Umm- I actually checked out, on an SS2, with a single ended QLGC,isp board
(with the jumper set so it put out SUNW,isp, but the driver should
recognize either) prior to comitting the changes. I did *minimal* checkout,
i.e., it recognized the only wide target I had available at the spot,
a Toshiba CDROM, and was able to mount a iso9660 file system, etc...

Let me know how it goes.. I didn't do any of the differential pin
sensing stuff that you can do with the SBus version, but it should
work.

As they say, "watch this space...."
