the following diff enables dma on this controller and has yet to blow

echo dma on>/dev/sdXX/ctl doesn't turn dma on?
And I was so proud of myself.
Is this documented somewhere? the only reference to dma i found was in
the Supported PC Hardware page of the wiki, which suggests editing
data.c.
Speaking of the wiki, I notice that the instructions on the Acme Wiki
Instructions are not working? There are some links on the site that
are broken, ( e.g. the installation notes link on the http://plan9.bell-labs.com/plan9/
page points to http://plan9.bell-labs.com/wiki/plan9/installation_instructions/
instead of http://www.plan9.bell-labs.com/wiki/plan9/Installation_instructions
) and I thought to help fix that
In any case, my system is now mostly idle and is no longer generating
tens of thousands of interrupts per second.
