ISA > soundcards don't work either. It sounds like this is yet another DS20 bogon, as floppies work fine on my XP1000s under 4.0-RELEASE. Is this on the genuine DS20, or the UP2000? Damn. I'm not even sure how to go about debugging this.. I think the S/G DMA setup code is correct, and it seems like the ISA code must be at least partially correct if the thing is getting probed at all.
