Thanks for your response. Whilst USB would not be an ideal solution for this machine, it may be a solution to another problem. I wanted to shift my 1-Wire weather station onto my SB100, using a 4-port Stallion card (same Linux driver as the big one, I believe). USB would be a good solution here as USB to 1-Wire adapters are available. (I have one with an FTDI chipset - unfortunately not listed.) I may see if I can get hold of one of the compatible chips and make myself up an adapter. Someone kindly forwarded my messages to the drivers list and I have been advised by someone that they are considering writing a driver for the PCI device - which would be the perfect solution for me. I will just be patient on migrating my server (it is going to be a pretty huge job anyway) and have a look at the USB solution for my Blade.
