MVME162, The saga continues.....



Debian folks:
The FPU was the culprit, When I grab a card with FPU it boots to the 
Debian installer. Not altogether well yet, fdisk states 
 Your system is not supported yet!

---------------------------------------------------------

I will need the non-fpu working later, but for now the FPU version 
of the board is ok.
The controller seems to work ok for status, but fdisk is unhappy about
something, I have this combinbination in another chassis and fdisk is
happy there. That cpu board is old however.
