Thanks, Mike, I will be watching your progress and offer my support! I submitted a patch to move to 64 bit (which also drops the virt_to_bus code) several years ago and it was rejected because of the focus on the time to make i2o_block the driver of choice for this line of controllers. I then reacted to the rejection by working with Markus Lidel to move the 64 bit capabilities into the i2o driver. Sincerely -- Mark Salyzyn
