If you think that was a missfeature, take a look at SNI's RM200C. It's has
the reset button mounted directly on the motherboard. Which is why my
machine has never been closed. And really f*cked idea for something which
had NT as OS option ;-)
Ho humm... If I remember right the Indy has some watchdog onboard. Time
to use it.

Thanks. Both addresses are pointing to code which is important for the
SCSI driver's correctness. I'll do some more philosophy about the register
dump later.
