I don't think there are high hopes for the 3ware card. At least not
unless you preconfigure it on a PC.
Alpha happens to work because its firmware includes a simple x86
simulator that executes the BIOS code on the card. That way you can
configure your disk setup, etc.
We don't have similar functionality on PA-RISC. So you are limited
what can be done from within Linux.
Unfortunately the 3ware management utility is 386 binary-only.
I.e. you can't configure the card once you get Linux up and running
either.
