I think (MHOO) that things were better when PCI devices weren't listed. I know I meant them to show up, but unless they get grouped seperately (ie. in a seperate class) you're right; people will get confused. > And deleting any of the PCI entries, BTW, is now grounds for an > immediate panic once you continue. Whups. Urk. That's _not_ supposed to happen, and TBH unless Bruce goofed somewhere I can't see how it could.
