.. Okay. Is that 32-bit or 64-bit? How much RAM ? My PPC machine is not currently set up for Linux, and has only PCIX (not PCIe) slots, so I'll try this first on an x86-32 box with PCIe. If it works for me there, then I may be able to try a PCIX card in my PPC-32 box later. The PCIX card won't have a 7042 of course, so I'll use a 6081 instead. Those earlier Marvell chips are supposed to be extremely similar.
