+###############################################################################
+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 ?
