The current machine-status document is located (temporarily) at:

http://is.rice.edu/~ender/macbsd/machine-status/machine-status.1.2-current

However, I haven't updated it since Allen managed to get the new SCSI 
driver integrated, so it doesn't note the fact that many of the 
'040-based macs are now working.  I had hoped to have time to get it 
finished this past weekend, but schoolwork keeps rearing its ugly head.  
I'll see if I can get it updated soon.  (Don't worry, I'm aware that 
quite a few things are out of date.  I should have time before much 
longer.  Just one more big deadline to go ;-)

Anyway, from what I have gleaned, the Q700 and the C610 should run 
relatively well (unless the 610 has an 'LC040, in which case it might not 
be too stable).  The 840AV might still have some other problems.

Someone had worked on an older MFS floppy drive driver, but there is 
still no FDHD floppy driver driver (and since the chip that controls it 
is a custom Apple design, I doubt there will be one anytime soon )-:

I hope this clears some things up.

Later.
