My goal is to be able to probe the machine and set ISA_CARDS based on the probe. What's a DMI table and how can I query it for the presence of ISA slots? What I want to do with this is make ISA-card questions invisible on modern PCI-only motherboards. -- <a href="http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/">Eric S.
