I'm pretty sure only the AV Quadras used the PSC... I checked the MkLinux
source, and the stuff it's doing doesn't look quite right for the AVs. It
knows about DBDMA, which is PCI PowerMac, I think, and some "enetdma"
thing, which I'm assuming is for the older NuBus PowerMac. It's possible
the enetdma will work on the AV Quadras, but from a quick glance, I don't
think it will.
