What does that mean?
Does that mean that you just dont care about the ext2 corruptions problem?
Does that mean that you feel you attacked about this problem?

Do you want scsi maintainers of other drivers (you indirectly said they are
bad implemented) give up from Linux?
Quite frankly, do you want next Linux 2.2 only supports BusLogic scsi boards?
