Subject: Re: [RFC v2 PATCH] m68knommu: added dm9000 support

thanks for the review, 
- sure, i agree the sw byte swap could be related to a BIG_ENDIAN config option only.
- about HW, can be replaced with something like "dm9000 to cpu bus wiring", i will be more clear in my next patch version.
- i will remove blank lines
- readsX and writesX was completely missing for m68knommu, i have seen that the most appropriate file where to create them was probably "linux/arch/m68k/include/asm/io_no.h" but any comment is appreciated.
- i am adding m68k guys list from now.

thanks
angelo
