For example, you could make this

=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0compatible =3D "8xx\0mpc885ads";
"mpc885ads-pcmcia\0mpc8xx-pcmcia" or something like that.
Right. I can never remember what goes first...
It doesn't really matter all that much; "correct"
drivers probe for the most specific thing first,
then the next most specific thing they support,
etc.  It is mostly a convention.

The important thing is that you can't just call
yourself "8xx", that is way to generic a name.
