Significant modifications to the SCSI controller support sections in both

files.  They are now both basically the same.  I also modified the driver
list in HARDWARE.TXT:  add the adw and isp drivers, and indicate that the
uha driver isn't yet supported under CAM.

This includes specific mention of all supported NCR and BusLogic models,
additional qualification of the supported DPT and QLogic models, and some
additions to the list of supported onboard Adaptec chips.

The hope is, of course, that this will lead to fewer questions like "is the
froboz SCSI controller supported?"

I think the formatting of the new entries looks okay, but someone with a
better eye for things like that might want to look at this.

-SCSI TAPE SUPPORT:
-
-  The CAM SCSI tape driver doesn't yet handle older (and many times broken)
-  tape drives very well.  If you've got an older SCSI-1 tape drive, like an
-  Exabyte 8200 or older QIC-type tape drive, it may not work properly with
-  the CAM tape driver.  This is obviously a known problem, and we're
-  working on it.
-
-  Newer tape drives that are mostly SCSI-2 compliant should work fine.
-  e.g., DAT (DDS-1, 2 and 3), DLT, and newer Exabyte 8mm drives should
-  work fine.
-
-  If you want to find out if your particular tape drive is supported, the
-  best way to find out is to try it!

 The following drivers were supported under the old SCSI subsystem, but are
 NOT YET supported under the new CAM SCSI subsystem:
