Spectacular... two more questions then: (this is i386 of course)

1) do these cards need to support changing the IRQ or i/o address?

2) would I add more lines to the kernel config here:

# ISA ST506, ESDI, and IDE controllers
wdc0    at isa? port 0x1f0 irq 14 flags 0x00
wdc1    at isa? port 0x170 irq 15 flags 0x00

... like adding a wdc2 and wdc3, or is that somehow not necessary?
