+###############################################################################
+When you load pg, you need to specify some parameters like:
+
+ drive0=0x378,0,0,4,0,0
+
+The parameters are:
+
+ <prt>,<pro>,<uni>,<mod>,<slv>,<dly>
+
+ Where,
+
+ <prt> is the base of the parallel port address for
+ the corresponding drive. (required)
+
+ <pro> is the protocol number for the adapter that
+ supports this drive. These numbers are
+ logged by 'paride' when the protocol modules
+ are initialised. (0 if not given)
+
+ <uni> for those adapters that support chained
+ devices, this is the unit selector for the
+ chain of devices on the given port. It should
+ be zero for devices that don't support chaining.
+ (0 if not given)
+
+ <mod> this can be -1 to choose the best mode, or one
+ of the mode numbers supported by the adapter.
+ (-1 if not given)
+
+ <slv> ATAPI devices can be jumpered to master or slave.
+ Set this to 0 to choose the master drive, 1 to
+ choose the slave, -1 (the default) to choose the
+ first drive found.
+
+ <dly> some parallel ports require the driver to
+ go more slowly. -1 sets a default value that
+ should work with the chosen protocol. Otherwise,
+ set this to a small integer, the larger it is
+ the slower the port i/o. In some cases, setting
+ this to zero will speed up the device. (default -1)
+
+EPP mode is best. Your BIOS may not give you that option, unfortunately.
+What options does it support ?
