You'll fail the attach because the ID is not in the table of known

- pci drivers "know" that pci interrupts are shareable and force

Yes.
- the isa compatibility code and pcvt force RF_SHAREABLE although isa
irqs are rarely
Point taken, however; does it not allowe the services to be configured by such things
as ip, and time period

Well enough b/w wasted on this for now.

Using the EISA BIOS stuff might be the way to go.

How do we use the EISA BIOS on an Alpha or an SGI though?
I believe thorpej recently committed some code in NetBSD to do this
on the Alpha.

As a backgrounder for other-than-Justin, Adaptec has a habit of
making multipurpose ROMs that sit on different types of devices,
so that they don't have to maintain multiple images. It's the
EISA stuff in these ROMs that causes a non-EISA BIOS based EISA
probe to incorrectly identify them
