So... here's the product: https://www.ebay.ca/itm/PCI-Express-PCI-e-to-PCI-Adapter-Card-PCIe-to-Dual-PCI-Expansion-Card-USB-3-0/383647797022?hash=item595330cf1e:g:O~kAAOSw0kxfGdIM For those who don't want to click, we have PCIe 1x -->> usb3.0 -->> PCI 32bit/66. Is that likely to work? Is our abstraction of busses that powerful? If I plug, say, a PCI I/O controller with a floppy on it ... would that be detected? If not, is it a somewhat simple hack to make it work?
