There were other patches which added more COBALT support, but they were dropped or lost or whatever.
I would not balk at having that code yanked. I never got around to doing proper Cobalt support for modern kernels. :( On 6/3/07, Roland Dreier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Actually, looking through the old kernel history, it looks like this was added by Tim Hockin's (CCed) patch "Add Cobalt Networks support to nvram driver". Which added this to drivers/cobalt: +bool 'Support for Cobalt Networks x86 servers' CONFIG_COBALT I guess Tim can clear up what's intended...
