sorry.
i did turn off probing legacy ports unless a recognized
pci device was found. this was paranoia on my part. (i hope.)
just trying to get past our sata drives with ide programming interface
problem. i've turned blind probing back on and will put out a new iso
shortly. i've also added jmicron ide.

this is okay.
> NVIDIA GeForce Go 6100 graphics - works fine with 1024x768x16 VESA
using the native nvidia driver is proablly a better idea.

there's no forcedeth support for plan 9. sorry
> NVIDIA MCP51 PATA controller - buggy? see below...
the controller should be just fine. i used to have an
nvidia controller and it worked just fine until it was
taken out by an electricial storm.
ati and intel chipsets tend to have the best support.
