ok. I didn't know that.

Well, if you really end up with the equivalent to an rp2470, then
I can assure you there is a kernel out there that will work since
that's what several developers are using (including myself).

I suspect the rp2430 PDC simply doesn't report one (or two) of the
PCI bus controllers. Neither HPUX nor parisc-linux will see those slots.
Very simple to implement and requires no HW changes.
