+       The Bt445S and Bt747 controllers can cause problems when ISA DMA
+       is selected as an option.  With the EISA controller the remedy is
+       easy - simply turn it off using your EISA configuration utility.
+       With the Bt445S, which is a VLB card, you must switch the undocumented
+       "SW10" on "SB2" to the off position.  Also note that certain revisions
+       of the Buslogic firmware can cause data corruption with systems
+       containing more than 16Mb of memory.  If you find this to be the case,
+       temporarily remove your extra memory and contact Buslogic for an
+       upgrade.
