Hello,

I moved the ap dev driver now from a mainbus attachment to the podulebus.
The compilation works fine, the driver functions probe and attach are not
executed (ATM no podule is present). As far everything works as expected.

But when I try to access the with this driver corresponding device the
kernel crashs at the same moment. Why ?

Should not be normaly I get a 'device not configured' if I try to access a
driver which was not initialized or what have I to do that in the case of a
non present podule any access is rejected.

Thanks and
	Ciao, Peter
