Must be!  I have firmware rev 4.22 and BIOS rev 4.86.  You?

In the 2.0-RELEASE isa.c, line 454 or so, the following shows up:

	if (isdp->id_iobase >= 0x1000) {
		printf (" on eisa\n");
	} else {
		printf (" on isa\n");
	}

So, I'll try to stop worrying about it ... next step: going to fast
sync mode.  Good luck.
