I only remember touching that line to rebase it onto either Memory API or QOM. The i82378 is the sole PCI-ISA bridge so all ISA devices will be affected by it, which is pretty much everything except VGA iirc. The upcoming pc87312(?) Super I/O also would be attached to it, replacing some of the bogus I/O in the current "prep" machine. I'm not familiar with what this option affects. What unexpected side effects would you expect? :) Regards, Andreas
