To make things completely clear:
(1) Problems #2 (secondary PCI bus bugs/lack-of-support) and #3
(unclaimed interrupts) that Matt mentioned are AlphaServer
8200/8400-specific.
(2) Problem #1 (problem mapping isp1's registers) may be a
generic problem with the ISP driver, but is (at least
in my opinion) more likely a problem with the AlphaServer
8200/8400 code.
Like we've said, the AlphaServer 8200/8400 support is preliminary, but
good enough to boot multi-user and build lots of things. 8-)
