The idea was that there were a number of devices that are listed as supported in the alpha hardware notes, just because no set of supported architectures was explicitly specified for them. While not a huge problem for the current state of FreeBSD, I'm looking forward to where we'll need to support a few more architectures, and we'll need to be more definitive about what devices are supported for each architecture. Based largely on the drivers in the alpha GENERIC kernel configuration, as well as Wilko's alpha-specific documentation, I've made up a patch for CURRENT's hardware notes to try to disambiguate some of the entries (i.e. try to add arch= attributes to more of the devices supported). Could some people "in the know" about the alpha give me some feedback? Thanks! Bruce.
