I have seen that there are ways to clone a BSP, but are there also builtin
ways to clone a driver (in PB5) or how would one go about this task?

Point is I'm facing a similar problem, although in my case it is a CF card
(which feels like an ATA controller with attached device) that is connected
via the PCMCIA interface of an AMD Alchemy Au1100. The board is derived
from the DB1100, but the external hardware in particular around the PCMCIA
interface is significantly different (only one slot, no PCMCIA but only CF
etc).

I haven't looked too deeply into that but where would be the starting point
in connecting this hardware to the ATA (and finally FAT) drivers? Since I'm
currently porting from PB4.2 to PB5, and already have a working PB4.2 setup
which I haven't written, I'd be interested in where to start in both - I
hope understanding the existing one would help me bring up the new one.

Thanks for any ideas,

Uli
