Hello.

I found an old Adaptec pcmcia scsi adapter in a box. It uses the aic(4) driver 
but
it will not attach during boot/insertion it complains that it is "unable to 
detect chip!".

I found this oneliner patch in the archives:
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/netbsd-bugs/2005/12/04/0013.html
This patch makes it attach and work.

aic1 at pcmcia1 function 0: <Adaptec, Inc., APA-1460 SCSI Host Adapter, Version 
0.01>
scsibus0 at aic1: 8 targets, 8 luns per target
scsibus0: waiting 2 seconds for devices to settle...
sd0 at scsibus0 target 4 lun 0: <DEC, RZ29B    (C) DEC, 0016> disk fixed

Above is the external scsi-box for my DECstation connected to an i386 laptop.
It mounts and works fine.

Now, whose leg do I need to (figuratively) hump to get this committed?
