It shouldn't mind it if you turn the cache off w/ the control panel. Is
this incorrect? Hmmm... Or maybe it's OK with the 40MHz cards, but
it's not OK with the 50MHz variety. Wish I had one... ;-)

You can try to use it. I don't know if anyone's tried the NuBUS card.

If you grab the dt package, it should have a compiled copy along w/ the
source. You can place it wherever you like. /usr/local/bin is a good
place...
