I think it's probably very true. The CATS config is _far_ from generic
with only a couple of SCSI cards and network cards enabled. It's also got
hardwired limits on the max number of processes. It looks very much like
'these are the ones we've got working', hence my trepidation in trying a
different driver.

Even the floppy doesn't work from 1.4 onwards...
