Subject: Acorn SCSI board arbitration
I've gone and misplaced my Winchester service manual *again* (which IIRC is
the only source of info on the Acorn SCSI board)
Can someone tell me if the Acorn hardware / software does the SCSI Arbitration
phase (during which multiple potential hosts argue over who has control of the
bus)?
I suspect there's no logic there to do it (technically it is optional) and the
assumption is that only one host is present on the bus and will try to control
it.
cheers
