Yes it's a i82077... I'll have sthing working soon. 

BTW This is a very common controller (used on PCs / alpha / sparc / ...)
and every port has a copy of approximately the same code, it would be
nice to have a common part with only separate match/attach functions.

What is the policy for major attribution? (same as ULTRIX?
i.e. blk = 48 and chr = 83)?
