I have an HP apollo series 400 sitting here since nearly a year, isn't that
an hp300? It does not have a harddisk, but it booted, maybe it is time to
add a disk and power it up again...

Yes, I have a series 400 myself. Those are the only ones even remotely
likely to run Linux, none of the series 300 is likely to have enough
memory. Mine has a whopping 64 MB which I think is the maximum a series
400 can support.

No disk support yet though, NFS only... :-)
There is an experimental patch that adds (PIO only) SCSI support for
2.6.9 from Jochen Friedrich, I'll have a look if it can be used as a
starting point for a "real" driver.

For now I'd first like to get the iomap and 53c700 stuff finalised so it
can go upstream and we can build proper Amiga and MVME16x kernels again.

Then I have a nice patch which adds the HP9000 system devices as
platform devices and fills in /proc/iomem properly.

Also a patch to enable support for the extra serial ports on the series
400.


Kind regards,

Kars.
