This should work with most 3.x systems, although it's only been tested with 3.3-stable. Notes: - This release tries to deal with the "poll still busy" problem that has been reported. I was being too zealous in complaining about outstanding status commands. - You can't boot from a RAID volume. The fix for this is quite nontrivial, and may not ever make it back into the 3.x family. - Before installing a card, you *must* update your bootstrap and loader as detailed in the included instructions (binaries are provided).
