Actually I think any card is allowed to drive RESET# down, though obviously 
you are right that it will reset the entire bus (and on most systems take the 
rest of the machine with it).

If the EBSA has a jumper or test point on its local bus reset signal it 
wouldn't be beyond the wit of man to arrange to wire it to a parallel port or 
some other convenient output. :-)
