	Everything is on hose1.  Although the floppy shows up on
EISA on hose 0, but the kernel still boots at least.  Before, I
had the multi-NCR/DECchip card on hose0, one DAC960 on hose0, one
DAC960 on hose1 and one qlogic 1020 card on hose1 as well.

	The kernel wouldn't even boot like that, complaining
about no support for more than one hose or something.  So I
removed the qlogic card entirely, since I didn't need it, yanked
the video card (I'm on a serial console now) and squeezed the
other three cards into hose1.

	Do you still need the output from show conf, or did I
answer your question?  And how will the serial console help to
capture the output easily?
