Hi Finn,

I'm afraid I cannot test anything on Atari hardware at present - my 
Falcon ate it's IDE disk partition table with all the fun that entails. 

That doesn't sound good.

Haven't even begun to try and recover that yet.

If you send a patch I could build a kernel and send that to Christian 
for testing (if he's got his Falcon up and running - might be a tad warm 
in the attic for that, in fact).

Anyone with a suitable Atari, i.e. ATARIHW_PRESENT(TT_CLK), who can boot 
both TOS and Linux could resolve the question. (Perhaps with an emulator?)

The Falcon is not powered on currently but it should still work. What should
I test?

Any old kernel binary would do, since atari_scsi should print either 
"HOSTID=n" or "this_id n" at startup.

If n doesn't agree with what TOS says about the host's SCSI ID, then I 
think a trivial patch is safe enough. Especially if cat /proc/driver/nvram 
produces a "SCSI host ID : m" that does agree with TOS.
