???

So would it be better to use the CHRP settings to build a kernel for the MVME5100 ?

Ok, fine. It means that  my code to reprogram the Raven/Hawk on 2[467]xx
just makes things more uniform. I still don't like the fact that the DMA
is offset, though (unless it's a residual data bug, and map B on 106/107
does not have this DMA offset).
