Thanks Uwe and Christophe for providing a pointer to the PPC
driver. 

Does that mean that you are planning to do a port? If so, I could
then try my changes with a sun4m box (SS20, 2CPUs) which has a SBUS
SBA-200e card installed. I just plugged in the card today and this
is what it shows:

% pwd
/proc/openprom/iommu@f,e0000000/sbus@f,e0001000/FORE,sba-200e@3,400000
% ls -l

-r--r--r--   1 root     root            0 Jun  7 16:40 serialnumber

So that card is there and is recognized by the boot prom. The only 
problem is that I know next to nothing about device drivers :-/
I'll take a look at the PPC driver first and will then start 
gathering more info about the differences between SBA vs PCA models.
