   Here is a summary of how I got the tyan-1365(ncr825)
and a GA ncr810 working on an asus p55tp4xe:

1. remove the rom from the 825.
2. put the 825 in the pci slot closest to the simms.
3. put the 810 in the media-bus slot on the other side.
4. set the "1'st/2'nd" jumper on the 810 to 2'nd
5. put boot drives on 810

It looks so simple, but took a month of fiddiling to get
the right combo. Its amazing how a day or two off from work
can bring new blood into the brain 8)

I might mention that I was also trying to get slowaris2.5 fcs/sdk
and freebsd boot from the same disk. Solaris does some really strange
geometry translation, and likes to round cilinder boundaries.
...details on that solution available on request..
ps: you preaty much need a pentium-pro to run bloataris at the same
    comfort level as freebsd on a p100. 

Thanks for being patient..
