Hi,

The install document on gentoo.org states that the pci autotection doesn't
always catch the sungem cards...

It should catch everything, the pci.ids file should be filled with new PCI ids
it doesn't catch (into the correct categorie). Have a look in the cvs,
gentoo-src/cd-tools/init.d/pci.ids

Hmm on my PPC boxen it has always picked it up afaik (at least in recent ISO's,
a couple of the early ISO's didn't seem to autodetect PCI at all)

Install doc needs to be changed, but it seems to work here.
