Hi Andrew,

I am looking forward to your patch. 
If there is anything you want me to test let me know...
Does it support 32bit cards?

Br,

Johan

Nice to get some feedback, Your the second person that has used it.

It will work conceptually with 2.4.25 as I'm currently running a
relatively recent denx kernel with similar changes. I haven't
published a recent patch yet as there wasn't much feedback last
time...

I've recently done some more work on this to clean it up, for example
USB didn't work with that previous patch but they now coesist happily.

I'll look at posting a patch soon when it's merged into my shiny new GIT
tree.
