Yes, it is. (Cyberstorm MK II 68060/50)

Yes, because it checks only the software driver Devs:oktagon.device and not
the ROM.
But I upgraded some time ago, and I just verified, that there is a "6.12"
sticker on the EPROM.
Thus, this should be fine.

Thanks for the offer. But now, since I have installed Debian without the
oktagon controller, it runs without problems, even when I re-install the
oktagon.
It was just the program dbootstrap, that hung, when the oktagon was
installed.
However, I did not yet check, whether the system would now access any
devices attached to the oktagon. Normally I have only my scanner attached
to it, and I do not even know a scan program for Linux-m68k.
All other devices are attached to the Cyberstorm SCSI.
If you are interested, I can give you an update on this, as soon as I have
tested the oktagon with a hard drive attached to it.
Regards
