Now NetBSD/arc has bus_dma support (jazz bus support was contributed 
by Urata-san), and the code is known to work on PCI busmaster DMA
on RISCstation 2250. But the code is not tested with ISA DMA or 
ISA busmaster DMA.

Anyway, I've put the kernel with the wdc related devices enabled 
on the follwoing URL:
ftp://ftp.sra.co.jp/pub/os/NetBSD/misc/arc/netbsd.IDETEST.2000-08-03.ecoff.gz

If this kernel works, RISCstation can mount localdisk as root filesystem...

P.S.
I will be offline until Saturday night.
