Hello,

Sory for delayed answer - i had been off my workplace for the past week.
As for the subject, the project that had to deal with pc104 platform, that
caused the problem, was a proof-of-concept for the new railway automation
system. Now the project has moved towards RTOS with most algorithms
implemented in hardware (FPGA), so the software was left at FreeBSD 4.x
stratum. I did not try to port the software to the new FreeBSD verions, so i've
got no news for 6.1 platform.
