Storage
Storage I/O is supported via the NCR 53C700 narrow, NCR 53C710 Fast-Narrow or NCR 53C875
Ultra-Wide SE SCSI controllers. The on-board NCR 53C720 Fast-Wide HVD controllers are not supported.
GSC/HSC and PCI expansion cards with one of the 53C710 or 53C8xx (siop) SCSI chipsets, Adaptec
2940 (ahc) PCI and various Qlogic ISP PCI SCSI adapters should also work, however not necessarily
for booting.
Graphics
All on-board graphics adapters are supported for text mode via STI routines (similar to PC VGA BIOS).
At the present there is no working X server.
Human I/O
Human I/O is supported via PS/2 devices, HIL does not work.
Misc
Several PCI USB adapters from VIA and ALi have been tested and are known to work; they support
USB mass-storage and Ethernet devices. The onboard Harmony audio system is supported.
