Hi Mark,

Thanks for your reply. I tried the two kernels in the 19981001 snapshot  =
(RISCPC and RPCINST) booting off my HD on the ICS i/f but unfortunately =
both hung at the secondary bootstrap. ie

initarm ... secondary bootstrap

I tried the orig 1.3.2 ones to just check what they did, and as expected =
they got
down as far as probing  podule 0 then hung.

cheers,

Darren Kennedy.

This card is support in -current. I took the oppertunity during the =
update
to use the MI IDE code to add support for this card to the ICS driver.

Try using one of the kernels from the latest snapshot on the netbsd ftp
site. These will have the support. The 1.3.2 kernels did not have the V6
support and due to the V6 not supporting the memc access cycles like the
V5 this resulted in bus locking when probing the card.
