Ah, no. They have PCI slots and could probably support most PCI things, I just didn't consider that so far, basing on config.orion5x. Is it preferred to add everything that might work for these boards, or acceptable to go for a more minimal config to help reduce build time? -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK. st...@einval.com "I can't ever sleep on planes ... call it irrational if you like, but I'm afraid I'll miss my stop" -- Vivek Dasmohapatra -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
