-
- But since gvpscsi.device is also on your FaastROM the version in
- Sys:Expansion is ignored. This is why you have 3.15 loaded (from ROM) not
- 4.13.
-
- If you disabled the FaastROM and booted from a floppy with the 4.13 file in
- it's expansion drawer then you should get 4.13 installed (I haven't tried
- this).
-
- The gvpat is the driver for the AT interface on the old A3001 cards. You
- don't need it.
