- I would hasten to clarify that only the 8 bit Future Domain cards
- are supported at this time. Also, while SyQuest removeable media
- is supported, if a root filesystem is booted from a cartridge, it
- can not be removed when someone wants to read another Coherent
- filesystem on another cartridge. If you are booting from another
- drive and need to change cartridges in the SyQuest drive to mount
- another COHERENT filesystem, this is okay.
