Btw, my first name is Gérard. :)
Only SYM-2 uses the new SCSI EH code. Stock Linux SYM/NCR drivers
(1.6/1.7) use SCSI obsolete EH.
For now, I received a very small number of reports about SYM-2 driver
under Linux. And since I haven't any idea about the number of people who
actually tried or use it, I still consider it Beta. I would be glad so few
reports to just mean that the driver is really reliable.
As a result, I also cannot state about the stability of the new SCSI EH
code.
