now, this works in 2.4.19, and i can use the devices.
in 2.5.44 its detected as such, didnt realise until I tried to use my zip drive, which is attached to
it.
these devices arent disabled, altho it says they are... there isnt really a 'bios' to enable them in.
it just detects the devices at boot.
im going to try to write some stuff down when it boots, as i dont have a serial cable to monitor its
activities.
but, definately interesting.
