2.1.77 with AHA1542 support compiled-in, all SCSI devices built as
modules. Running "mt -f /dev/nrst0 status" resulted in the following:

<6>Detected scsi tape st0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 4, lun 0
<6>st: bufsize 32768, wrt 30720, max buffers 4.
<4>aha1542.c: Trying device reset for target 4
<4>HACC aha1542.c: interrupt received, but no mail.
<4>Sent BUS RESET to scsi host 0

Finally, mt gave up with the following message:

mt: /dev/nrst0: No such device or address

This has been broken since 2.1.75, i.e., things work fine for 2.1.74
and earlier kernel releases.
