Hi Finn,

I'm afraid I cannot test anything on Atari hardware at present - my 
Falcon ate it's IDE disk partition table with all the fun that entails. 
Haven't even begun to try and recover that yet.

If you send a patch I could build a kernel and send that to Christian 
for testing (if he's got his Falcon up and running - might be a tad warm 
in the attic for that, in fact).

Cheers,

     Michael
