, you write:
-> I stole the device_register() stuff from the pmax port, and modified it
-> to work on my Challenge S. It uses the OSLoadPartition passed as one of
-> the arguments to determine the root filesystem.
I had this on my TODO list, but had gotten hung up on the details of matching
the particular devices to ARCS devices [so it would work for the secondary
SCSI, could match the second, in the ARCS POV, disk even if your NetBSD
config wired ti down somewhere else, ... etc.] and now am battling the
new toolchain...
It would be nice to get something like that working, even if all my
fantasies of it being truly complete weren't fulfilled 8-)
