I own one of these.

I'm sure that they can be made to work as 4 drive controllers in Linux, but
I strongly suspect that the Linux floppy driver may need to be "tweaked" to
understand that it's possible for a controller to support 4 drives.  But
from an interface standpoint, the thing is pretty vanilla flavored--I don't
use the PROM in mine and it functions just fine.

Cheers,
Chuck
