There is some work in progress but it's slow due to lack of
time.

There is already a driver for the ethernet card (if_eg), Someone
wrote an XF86 driver for the Mono card which would need a little
bit of modification to work on the Color cards.  There is also a
driver for the scsi-portion of the WD7000-ASE and work in progress
for the ESDI portion...  There is nothing for the Omti disk controllers
at this time however.

Hoewver, you'll never boot a PC off an Apollo disk controller due
to the lack of PC ROM's.
