SCSI subsystem documentation
============================
The Linux Documentation Project (LDP) maintains a document describing
the SCSI subsystem in the Linux kernel (lk) 2.4 series. See:
http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/SCSI-2.4-HOWTO . The LDP has single
and multiple page HTML renderings as well as postscript and pdf.

The individual upper and lower level drivers can be loaded in any order
once the scsi core is present in the kernel (either compiled in or loaded
as a module). The disk driver (sd_mod.o), cdrom driver (sr_mod.o),
