PPC PCI Serial Port cards...

2000-06-23 Thread Brian Macy
I'm looking for 8 DB9 ports for my StarMax PPC box... runs Linux. I have a 4port ISA card for my PC but obviously that won't work in my PPC. 2 4port cards would be fine. Anyways, any suggestions as to what boards are good and supported by Linux would be appreciated. Thanks. Brian Macy

I'm trying to get my StarMax 4400 (OF 2.02) to like yaboot. Simply can't get it to work. Since it is not a "New World" Mac 90% of the documentation is not quite right. Brian Macy

ng run with upgrades being trivial. I'm frightened to think what installing Debian on an Alpha is going to be like. Makes the Debian i386 installs feel like a nice back massage :) Brian Macy
