Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

1If you are using the driver as a module, you can specify your ports and IRQs

6and so on ("address,IRQ" pairs).
7This will override the configuration in mcdx.h.

9This driver:
10
11 o handles XA and (hopefully) multi session CDs as well as
12 ordinary CDs;
13 o supports up to 5 drives (of course, you'll need free
14 IRQs, i/o ports and slots);
15 o plays audio

17This version doesn't support yet:
18
19 o shared IRQs (but it seems to be possible - I've successfully
20 connected two drives to the same irq. So it's `only' a
21 problem of the driver.)

23This driver never will:

25 o Read digital audio (i.e. copy directly), due to missing
26 hardware features.
