Unless you would like to write the pciide support for the Sandpoint,
your Disk and CD should be SCSI, and you should use one of the supported
SCSI controllers.  I have tested an old DPT adapter and an old Asus SC-200
adapter for SCSI.  I don't know about any others, but anything that
works on macppc should work on sandpoint.

I'm not sure about the floppy.  I have not yet picked up a working
floppy drive to test with the driver.  I don't use floppies much these
days...  ;-)
