Description Petros Koutoupis 2006-03-23 17:53:41 UTC
Description of problem:

I do not know where to submit such a thing but I wish to submit a patch
regarding some of our company's storage products.  This is for non-sequential
LUN-mapping on the 2.4 kernel.  An edit to the scsi_scan.c file and I was hoping
that maybe this would be entered in an update 7 of some sort.  If this is not
the place...please let me know where to forward this to. This is for additional
XYRATEX Raid products.

A fix for this problem has just been committed to the RHEL3 U8
