For the MCP750, you should have no problems. But to access MCPN750, the
code is not written and even the infrastructure is not (yet) there. some
more work to support non transparent PCI<->PCI bridges is necessary.

For various reasons (getting a larger PCI memory space being the first one
in your case to be able t oaccess several MCPN750 in a single backplane),
you might be interested in my prepboot loader which reorganizes Raven or
Hawk bridges in CHRP mode rather than PreP mode
(ftp:://vlab1.iram.es/linux-2.2/mvme*patch*).
