1. OVERVIEW
   This driver disk adds support for SiI SATA controller that is otherwise
   not supported by a Distribution.

   Supported Versions:

      * RedHatLinux 7.3/8.0

2. CREATE FLOPPY

   dd if=[distribution]_sii6514.img of=/dev/fd0  (In a Linux System)
      where distribution is redhat or suse_united 
      See Full Install if you want to use WINDOWS to create
          the floppy
      
   => Configure RAID SET using the BIOS if you want RAID functionality

3. INSTALL SOFTWARE

   . Insert Bootable CDROM
   . At boot prompt type 'linux dd'

   . Insert Floppy Containing the Driver and follow the installation instructions.

     
   . (Optional) Run proper cleanup scripts at some point. 
     mkdir /tmp/tmp
     mount /dev/fd0 /tmp/tmp
     cd /tmp/tmp
     'sh cleanup_7.3' or  'sh cleanup_8.0'

     Cleanup gets rid of temporary driver with "Unresolved symbols"
