At present, no: the PCI controller is currently unsupported due to  
historical lack of access to hardware. Andreas Tobler is currently  
working on a port to a similar machine, if you are willing to wait a  
little while. It might also help if you were willing to provide remote  
access to the HMC for a few weeks to a month.
