------ Becoming usable ------
1. Making a rom image (98)

 1. Copy "ipl.dat" "writeipl.com" "mkrom.com" to a disk on 98 somehow.
    (You may copy too "mkcg.com" "mkimage.com" "cpli98.com" for later.)

 2. Put a formatted 2HD(1.2MB) disk to a first floppy disk drive.
    Put "ipl.dat" to a current directory and run "writeipl.com"
      example: (a: is a hard disk drive, and d: is a first floppy disk drive.)
         A> format d: /m
         A> writeipl.com

 3. Boot from the floppy disk, and confirm printing of "succeed".

 4. Boot from an other disk.
    Put the floppy disk to a first floppy disk drive.
    Run "mkrom.com".
      example: (a: is a hard disk drive)
         A> mkrom.com

 5. Copy "*.rom" to a disk on Linux somehow.


----------
2. Making a disk image (98)

 1. Copy "mkimage.com" to a disk(fd or hd) on 98 somehow.

 2. Make DOS system disk (io.sys msdos.sys command.com format.exe etc) on 98.
      example: (a: is a hard disk drive, and d: is a first floppy disk drive.)
         A> format d: /m /s
         A> copy a:\dos\format.exe d:
         A> copy a:\dos\hdformat.exe d:

 3. Run "mkimage.com".
      example:
         A> mkimage

 4. Copy fd0 made by "mkimage.com" to a disk on Linux somehow.


----------
3. Making a cg image (98)

 1. Copy "mkcg.com" to a disk(fd or hd) on 98 somehow.

 2. Run "mkcg.com".

 3. Copy "*.cg" to a disk on Linux somehow.


----------
4. Registration 98 fonts to X (Linux)

 1. Put "*.cg" made by "mkcg.com" to a current directory.
    Run "mkbdf".

 2. Translate bdf files to pcf files.
      example:
         bdftopcf 98ank.bdf | gzip -9 > /usr/local/lib/fonts/98/98ank.pcf.gz

 3. Make a "fonts.dir".
      example:
         mkfontdir /usr/local/lib/fonts/98

 4. Set a font path of X.
      example:
         /etc/XF86Config
            FontPath   "/usr/local/lib/fonts/98/"

 5. Restart X.


----------
5. Becoming usable HD (Linux)

 1. Make a 66MB file as "hd0".
      example:
         dd if=/dev/zero of=hd0 bs=1048576 count=66 

 2. Put "fd0" and "hd0" in a current directory.

 3. Run pc98e, run "format", initialize and format.
    Attention: "format" print Japanese.

 4. Press Shift+Alt(Meta)+Esc for exiting.


----------
6. Becoming usable FM syntesizer(OPNA)
 -- required OPL3 --

 1. Become accessable "/dev/port"(FreeBSD: "/dev/io").
      example(Linux):
         chgrp kmem pc98e
         chmod g+s pc98e

 2. Look for a ioport number of OPL3.
      example:
         cat /dev/sndstat
      result:
         OPL-2/OPL-3 FM at 0x388 drq 0

 3. Set a option.
      example:
         pc98e -fm 388


----------
7. Becoming usable PCM

  1. Become to be able to write "/dev/dsp".
       example:
          chmod a+w /dev/dsp

  2. Set a option.
       example:
          pc98e -pcm


----------
8. Becoming usable MIDI
 -- required MIDI(external MIDI or Sound Blaster 32 and over),
    Sound Blaster 32 and over must be recognized by kernel --

 (a) external MIDI
  1. Look for a ioport number of MPU401.
       example:
          cat /dev/sndstat
       result:
          SB MPU-401 at 0x330 irq 5 drq 0

  2. Set a option.
       example:
          pc98e -midi 330

 (b) Sound Blaster 32 and over
  1. Become to be able to write "/dev/sequencer".
       example:
          chmod a+w /dev/sequencer

  2. Set a option.
       example:
          pc98e -awe
