I happened across a new version of Danis506.add in 
/pub/incoming on Hobbes. It doesn't say what's 
different about it though.

From Danis506.doc:
"DESCRIPTION
Since the original IBM1S506.ADD doesn't support the 
IDE controller found in the VIA 82C586(/A/B) south 
bridge beyond the basic features, I wasn't very happy 
with the performance of my 10Gig DTTA-351010 drive. 
The driver from VIA itself was no solution because it 
doesn't support all the advanced features found in 
todays hardware and locked up my system completely. 
So I sat down....

     This release of my S506 driver is no longer 
based on the sources provided by IBM on their DDK 
site. It has the latest feature set as found in the 
current fixpacks and fixes later than these."

You can find Daniss506 at:
   ftp://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/incoming/danis506.zip

and, later at:
