I was just about to start on this, but I want to make sure I'm not wasting my time. As best as I've been able to tell from searching the mailing list archives, these are the questions I have: Does 3.0 already support the use of PCCARD ATA "drives"? I see a message or two that seems to imply this is the case, but I have been unable to get it to work, and I don't see any support for it in the source code. Is somebody already working on this? 199708080747.QAA06025@afs.ntc.mita.keio.ac.jp contains a message from Tatsumi Hosokawa that a patch is available on ftp.freebsd.org. This patch has disappeared, and I can find no further mention of it. I would like to at least start from there, if possible. I am not looking for the answer, "use PAO". I want to make it work under standard FreeBSD 3.0, but I would like to know what the current status is. -- Christopher Masto Director of Operations NetMonger Communications chris@netmonger.net info@netmonger.net http://www.netmonger.net "Good tools allow users to do stupid things." -- Clay Shirky To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
