I'm fully on-board with that goal, but it may take a couple rounds to refine it into that state. One question I have is the stupid ethernet driver. Is the driver that is in mainline now usable on the StorCenter? I haven't waded through the supplied vendor patch to verify how it compares to the r8169 in mainline yet. Also, what do you want to do about the Kconfig set up for these then? Specifically, do you want to have "TurboStation" and "StorCenter"? Or would it make more sense to have something like a generic "NAS8241" with sub-choices of "storcenter" and "turbostation"? Thanks, jdl
