There is another project using a SL811HST. They made an expansion
board (Ehternet, Memory, and Usb) for Sharp x68000. They will probably
write a driver for Human68k (x68000's native OS), perhaps for NetBSD/x68k.

I think hooking up a SL811HST to a Qbus is very easy task if another PC
component is already attached, and writing a device driver is more
difficult and inevitable task.

This is a late echo reply, sorry. :)
