Hi,

Is there anyone working on a turbo channel driver for 2.6 ? I have 2.4 running on the DEC 3000 (turbo channel alpha machine). I want to get 2.6 to work and it would make sense to share the turbo channel part with other platforms (mipsel, vax).

Thanks,

Peter (p2).

I am, halfheartedly. Have you seen James Simmons's work?

That's the only reasonable way of doing it. It should also permit easy
support for multi-bus peripheral device drivers, namely for:
DEFTA/DEFEA/DEFPA, PMAGD/PBXGA and DGLTA/DGLPB.
