Is it at all possible to try and patch up drivers this way? Should I
just wait for OSKit Mach?


While you're welcome to hack drivers into gnumach, I suspect that you
won't see a new package for it.  Can you try the oskit-mach at
http://people.debian.org/~jbailey?  If that supports your driver, then
all you're waiting for is a usable console.  If not, please let me
know and I will add it.

Tks,

I've installed the package and tried booting with it. However, OSKitMach reboots the machine, apparently before loading the Hurd. All I havetime to see is 'GNU Mach 1.90' and I cannot confirm whether it supportsmy driver.
