List-ID: hello there, i wonder if there is support for the (E)ISA bus or if it is planned (for the near future/at all). i have a HP9000/730 and a HP9000/809 F10, and i want to use the first one to test Linux/hppa (since i don't have HP/UX and i don't want to install it 'though i could get it ...). The 730 has a free EISA slot, and i want to put in a ISA card (WaveLan PCMCIA-to-ISA-adaptor, including WireLessLan-PCMCIA-card) sometime in the future ... if it is possible. So since this configuration is supported by linux(/x86), i ask you: - is the support for (E)ISA on linux/x86 a sign/indication/hope/guaratee for support on linux/hppa ? - the same question for the WaveLan-driver I just read the status page (puffin) that there is somebody working on "WAX EISA support", so i assume there IS a support for the EISA (and ISA) bus for linux/hppa, i'm wrong ? thanks in advance, max
