Ok, well when I get 2.4 booted, I'll let you guys know. This falcon is
intended to be a buildd so I want ideals assigned for that purpose when
thinking of kernel version, etc.
The license of hte MinT driver I believe said something like "do
whatever you want with this code". I think it has some GPL MII code in
it. It should be quite safe and compatible.
Thanks,
