You're making a big assumption here thinking that I've got wits... I
haven't checked the physical wiring of the EBSA reset line out - if it
is easily accessible then I'll save many a reboot cycle on my host
machine..
I know that it does have a jumper which controls what drives the reset
line - hopefully it won't be difficult to wire it so that it responds to
the PCI bus and an external input.. Anyone else have any experience
with this?
