The web pages are
  <http://glycerine.itsmm.uni.edu/mca/>
and
  <http://glycerine.cetmm.uni.edu/mca/>

Does anyone know what happened to this web page? Has it moved
somewhere else? Is there a new maintainer?

Similarly, does anyone know if current versions of Slackware
have support for Microshannel hardware? I know that Debian is
supposed to have this support, but I'm used to Slackware.

TIA

    I just today sucessfully installed Debian Linux on an MCA machine.
I too am curious to know what happened to those sites as now I have a
new problem - trying to find a supported ethernet card.  The MCA 3com
Etherexpress I have in there now is not supported. :(.

Anyone know where I might find a list for Microchannel Supported
Hardware?

I don't have a complete thread, so if this is redundant please excuse.

The MCA stuff for Linux is at http://www.dgmicro.com/

There is Slackware boot and install disks supporting MCA. It won't support
mouse and parallel port (printer) so you would have to build a new kernel
after installation There is a patch which includes the MCA stuff into the
production 2.0.35 kernel.

RedHat: There is boot disks up to version 5.0. I've just uploaded for
version 5.1, but it might take a couple of days before it shows in the
RedHat directory. Version 5.2 is coming soon.
