Initial asking around suggests it's not possible as there's no Linux
kernel support for it, but...
... does Linux support running as a SCSI target (rather than a host) at
all?
As a lot of my work involves computer preservation, it'd be quite handy to
emulate an old SCSI disk / tape / CDROM using a modern Linux PC - when
hooked up to an old system, the old system would just think it was
talking to a standard SCSI device.
I'm quite happy to write sg driver code, but I get the impression that
there's no underlying support at all - the kernel always assumes it's the
host rather than target :-(
cheers
