If it is that easy could someone tell me what needs doing please ?
I am NOT a kernel programmer but given a little handholding and
a list of what to do I can build and test it here.

I also have a spare set of hardware if someone in the UK with the
needed skills would like it. Sorry, but the disk array is a bit heavy to
ship elsewhere. If someone already has the array I will mail a card
anywhere.

We need this if we are ever to get the Sun4D working again.
Keith now has a contact for the missing info to get Sun4D working
properly, but without the fc, soc and pluto it will be rather restricted in
usefulness.
