- The Starboard II dates 'way back to early Amiga times, when 1.2 was all
- the rage. Automount was just a gleam in C='s eyes at that point. So, you
- can't use the SBII as an automount. Microbotics has said in the past "It's
- old - we won't support it anymore - go buy one of our nice, new cards..."

-
- There's a ton of information in the A500/A2000 reference manual (NOT the
- hardware reference manual!) on how to do auto-config and auto-mount stuff.
- You can order it from CATS.
