Generic Disk Driver in Linux

Hi List,

I was curious that can we develop a generic disk driver that could
handle all the kinds of hard drives - IDE, SCSI, RAID et al?

I thought we could use the BIOS interrupt 13H for this purpose, but
ran into a LOT of real mode / protected mode issues.

Any other ideas?

Thanks,

Dan.
