Best supported? The Mediator is the only PCI busboard not supported by OpenPCI...


Neither Elbox nor OpenPCI provide open solutions. Elbox we know about. OpenPCI is open in name only--you have to be part of the Amiga hardware inner circle (whatever that is) to get access to the SDK. I presume that's why there are fewer drivers available for OpenPCI.

The OpenPCI SDK is available... It's also included in the MorphOS SDK...


The maintainer of the OpenPCI SDK hasn't responded to my requests in the past. Perhaps I'll try again.

I've just submitted a request for access to the MorphOS SDK; however, I'm developing for AmigaOS, so this won't be much help.

Turns out the MorphOS SDK sign-up was automated, so that wasn't a problem. Since the MorphOS header layout looks identical to the AmigaOS header layout, I suppose it would work. Now I just need to give it a try!
