These are the boot disks to be used with the Aztech CDA-268-01
CDROM drive (as well as the Wearnes and Okano drives) in
conjunction with the Slackware release.

The file azt109.gz uses kernel 1.0.9, so newer EIDE stuff is not 
included.  The kernel is compiled with all 1.0.9 SCSI disk drivers.

The file azt1182.gz uses kernel 1.1.82, with the new EIDE drivers
as well as SCSI drivers compiled in.

To use either of these files, you need to use them to create a
bootdisk.  Download them and gunzip them, then use RAWRITE (if
you're using DOS) to transfer the image to a floppy.  These images
are for 1.44 floppies!  I don't have a 5 1/4" drive so at the moment 
you are out of luck if that is your boot drive.

This assumes your CDROM drive is at IO address 0x320.  If it
is not, it will probe for the drive.  If you have some other
hardware, it might conflict, so you may have to specify where it 
is at the initial boot prompt.  When you boot up the disk, it will 
display an infomation message and then a boot: prompt.

At this point type ' ramdisk aztcd=0x330 ' or whatever IO address
your drive is at.  This will make the driver look at that address.

You can safely ignore the 'invalid socket' errors when the kernel
boots up.

When using 'setup' to install, select the Mitsumi CDROM drive.
/dev/mcd has been symlinked to /dev/aztcd, so it will use
the aztech drive.
