The 4.2-STABLE snapshot dated 10-Jan-2001 didn't have the driver as part of its kernel -- apparently the mfc of this driver neglected to do that as well as neglected to include the MAKEDEV bits for it as well. Building a new kernel on a newly CVSUP'd 4.2-STABLE machine and using the it to replace the kernel on a 4.2-RELEASE floppy does get the card recognized, but that's only because sysinstall doesn't know how to make the correct device. Putting a 'new' systinstall on the mfsroot disk didn't seem to work for me (the /stand directory on mfsroot looks queer...). If I manually made the /dev entries on the mfsroot disk for aacd, would that get me any further?
