into them. Installations instructions for the external module
are in the included README and HW_INSTALL files.
-RocketPort ISA and RocketModem II PCI boards currently are only supported by
-this driver in module form.
-
-The RocketPort ISA board requires I/O ports to be configured by the DIP
-switches on the board. See the section "ISA Rocketport Boards" below for
-information on how to set the DIP switches.
-
-You pass the I/O port to the driver using the following module parameters:
-
-board1 : I/O port for the first ISA board
-board2 : I/O port for the second ISA board
-board3 : I/O port for the third ISA board
-board4 : I/O port for the fourth ISA board
-
-There is a set of utilities and scripts provided with the external driver
-( downloadable from http://www.comtrol.com ) that ease the configuration and
-setup of the ISA cards.
-
-The RocketModem II PCI boards require firmware to be loaded into the card
-before it will function. The driver has only been tested as a module for this
-board.
+RocketPort ISA and RocketModem II PCI boards are also supported by this
+driver, but must use the external module driver for configuration reasons.

-ISA Rocketport Boards
----------------------
-
-You must assign and configure the I/O addresses used by the ISA Rocketport
-card before installing and using it. This is done by setting a set of DIP
-switches on the Rocketport board.
-
-
-SETTING THE I/O ADDRESS
------------------------
-
-Before installing RocketPort(R) or RocketPort RA boards, you must find
-a range of I/O addresses for it to use. The first RocketPort card
-requires a 68-byte contiguous block of I/O addresses, starting at one
-of the following: 0x100h, 0x140h, 0x180h, 0x200h, 0x240h, 0x280h,
-0x300h, 0x340h, 0x380h. This I/O address must be reflected in the DIP
-switiches of *all* of the Rocketport cards.
-
-The second, third, and fourth RocketPort cards require a 64-byte
-contiguous block of I/O addresses, starting at one of the following
-I/O addresses: 0x100h, 0x140h, 0x180h, 0x1C0h, 0x200h, 0x240h, 0x280h,
-0x2C0h, 0x300h, 0x340h, 0x380h, 0x3C0h. The I/O address used by the
-second, third, and fourth Rocketport cards (if present) are set via
-software control. The DIP switch settings for the I/O address must be
-set to the value of the first Rocketport cards.
-
-In order to destinguish each of the card from the others, each card
-must have a unique board ID set on the dip switches. The first
-Rocketport board must be set with the DIP switches corresponding to
-the first board, the second board must be set with the DIP switches
-corresponding to the second board, etc. IMPORTANT: The board ID is
-the only place where the DIP switch settings should differ between the
-various Rocketport boards in a system.
-
-The I/O address range used by any of the RocketPort cards must not
-conflict with any other cards in the system, including other
-RocketPort cards. Below, you will find a list of commonly used I/O
-address ranges which may be in use by other devices in your system.
-On a Linux system, "cat /proc/ioports" will also be helpful in
-identifying what I/O addresses are being used by devics on your
-system.
-
-Remember, the FIRST RocketPort uses 68 I/O addresses. So, if you set it
-for 0x100, it will occupy 0x100 to 0x143. This would mean that you
-CAN NOT set the second, third or fourth board for address 0x140 since
-the first 4 bytes of that range are used by the first board. You would
-need to set the second, third, or fourth board to one of the next available
-blocks such as 0x180.
