I'm using an EIDE2300plus as well, and had problems with ROMBIOS conflicts
causing disk access to hang which I've finally resolved. No problems with
serial i/o, but I'm only driving a Cray 14k4 modem at 19k2 DTE. Haven't
tried to run faster. Incidentally, I'm not loading the EIDE2300 drivers,
just running from the onboard BIOS, without any problems. Disk access
is actually faster, but don't know what other effects this has.

Promise support were helpful until they got to the "do you want to try a
BIOS upgrade ?" stage, at which time they didn't acknowledge any further
emails (coincidence?). Contact them at support@promise.com. The web site
http://www.promise.com is worth a browse too.

Here's a koan: If you have ice-cream I will give you some. If you have none,
               I will take it away from you. (it's an ice-cream koan).
