SCSI devices
 

Hi guys,

I want to detect a raw SCSI DISK during installation. To detect scsi I have set the flags
in kernel configuration file to "Y/y" to embbed the scsi modules into the kernel.

Example : for IDE disk in proc we ll have /proc/ide/ide0/hda or /proc/ide/ide1/hdc. In these
directory there is a file called "media" which tells the type of the device either disk
or cdrom.

I am trying to figure out samething in case of SCSI devices .... didnt get any help

How to map scsi devices to device files like /dev/sda.

in /proc/scsi/scsi file the entries are like below

///***** OTUPUT******///

Attached devices:
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00
Vendor: VMware, Model: VMware Virtual S Rev: 1.0
Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 01 Lun: 00
Vendor: VMware, Model: Virtual CD-ROM Rev: 1.0
Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 02 Lun: 00
Vendor: VMware, Model: VMware Virtual S Rev: 1.0
Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02

///****END***///

I am trying to figure how these entries are mapped to device files (for example /dev/sda or /dev/sdb etc.).

help me if any one knows abt this.

Thanks in advance
