It compiles, but not work for me.
I have old DECpc XL 466d2 with 53c810 non 'A' onboard.
I create custom boot disks with 4-stable kernel (new sym driver
compiled in): compile kernel, gzip it and replace kernel at kern.flp.
After loading mfsroot floppy and start booting it says something like
"sym0:can't allocate resource for MMIO" and reboot.
It's my fault or software still unsupport my NCR chip?

Best regards,
