I think sio code came more stable. I'll release next patch after we test this patch on many machines and many cards. Current status of our work: 1. SIO_QDHACK is replaced with a solid code. 2. Some NE2000 compatible Ethernet PCMCIA cards are under pre-alpha testing. 3. We're asking some hardware vendors about the specification of PCMCIA cards and PCICs. 4. Current ATA/Flash ATA implementation has some problem about unit number on desktop machine with PCMCIA card slots. I'm going to fix this bug. 5. (This is not about PCMCIA stuff, but necessary for Laptops) ports/packages works of WIDE DHCP package are done! -- HOSOKAWA, Tatsumi E-mail: hosokawa@mt.cs.keio.ac.jp WWW homepage: http://www.mt.cs.keio.ac.jp/person/hosokawa.html Department of Computer Science, Keio University, Yokohama, Japan
