Another problem: This text sounds ambiguous to me:
--------------------------------------------------
3 The DraCo Zorro-2 bus does not recognize a couple of boards (known: Melody
Z2, ITH ISDN Master II). Worse: boards in ConfigIn/ConfigOut
order behind them won't be found, either. This is not a NetBSD problem, but
a design problem in the board (yes, right).
--------------------------------------------------

I meant: "boards". The DraCo mainboards are fine pre se, but some Zbus 
boards expect configuration info writes on the wrong byte-lane. This happens
to work with Amigas, which create (due to the 68020/030 bus design) to route
byte writes to all byte lanes at once, and create the equivalent of one 
of the four chip selects. However, the DraCo is a 68040/060 only design...
