Description: Utilities for working with generic SCSI devices.
 This package includes a number of utilities to manipulate the linux "sg"
 (version 2) device driver, and to a lesser extent, the version 1
 driver found in the 2.0.x kernels.
 .
 The version 2 driver is only found in 2.2.x linux kernels; if you are
 using 2.4, please install the sg3-utils package instead.
 .
 The package includes:
     * isosize - gives the number of bytes in an iso9660 filesystem
     * scsi_inquiry - same as sg_inq, only uses SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND
     * sg_dd - a variant of 'dd' that works with the sg interface
     * sg_debug - prints debug info for all open sg file descriptors
     * sg_inq - a utility for poking around with the SCSI INQUIRY command
     * sg_map - shows the mapping between SCSI devices and sg devices
     * sg_rbuf - tests SCSI bus speed
     * sg_readcap - prints the output of a READ CAPACITY command
     * sg_runt_ex - an example program to test the sg driver version
     * sg_scan - displays the SCSI bus on stdout
     * sg_start - spins up (or down) disks
     * sg_test_rwbuf - tests the SCSI host adapter
     * sg_turs - execute a TEST UNIT READY command on the given device
     * sg_whoami - displays information about the given sg device
     * sginfo - a re-porting of the 'scsiinfo' program to use sg devices
     * sgp_dd - like sg_dd, only multithreaded
 .
 It also includes sg_simple1 and sg_simple2, which demonstrate calls to
 the SCSI INQUIRY and TEST UNIT READY commands.  They only differ in 
 their error processing: sg_simple1 uses sg_err.[hc] for error 
 processing while sg_simple2 does its own more primitive checks.
