Okay, thanks for that - it's reassuring to know that the latest ARCIN
card does work.  Presumably the card you have came from APDL.  AFAICT,
the only difference between current cards and the original ICS ones is
that the manufacturer code is now - 0x3d (Baildon Electronics?) rather
than 0x3c (ICS).

Never having done this before - is that from
/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-current/tar_files/src ?

Which file, sys.tar.gz?

A couple of things I might try first - I think I have the drivers
*unplugged on the RISC OS side.  Maybe BSD relies on some card
initialisation being done before the kernel is booted.
