[CDG5] SCSI Manager?

[Jd Lyons]

I was fooling around with Qemu and Virtio and I’m able to boot the newworld Mac OS ROM from a VirtIO PCI SCSI disk, however we can’t get the System file. Presumably because we need an ‘NDRV’ for our block device.

I notice that in the Newworld ROM we have /newworld-rom/pef/ndrv/ata with the ‘NDRV’s for:

cmd646
heathrow
kauai
keylargo

I seem to recall something about a SCSI manager in the Old World ROM, and I wondering if there is a way to extract it and add it to the New World ROM?

Likely we’ll need an ‘NDRV’ made just for Qemu’s VirtIO-SCSI device, but I think it will have to be added to Openbios or the New World ROM to get us booting…..
