This is a card targeted at ISPs / access providers, supporting
up to 30 B-channel connections simultaneously.
The patch is available against Linux 2.4.5 and 2.2.19.

I have a system running that uses two Promise Ultra66 cards (PDC20262).
However, the hard disks are capible of Ultra100 transfer rates. I needed an
Ultra66 card for another machine, so I decided to upgrade this one's cards to
Ultra100. I purchased a pair of Promise Ultra100 TX2's
Looks like -ac6 has fixed this problem :)

I suspect that I've found a bug in 2.4.5. I use isolinux (1.62) for
