Generic comment triggered by this update to the 'alpha' HARDWARE.TXT:
I just took a closer look at it and it appears to be a clone of the
'i386' version. E.g. PCMCIA, i4b etc are definitely not 'alpha'-capable.
Rather, HARDWARE.TXT is listing all stuff for which drivers exist
Wouldn't it be better to have a shared HARDWARE.TXT for both currently
supported architectures (moved to release/texts) and a port-specific
one in release/texts/[i386,alpha]? I'm currently writing a ALPHAHW.TXT
that I think fits in this picture.
Thoughts?
