Look at the switch settings of your Mitsumi interface card, and lookup
those settings in your Mitsumi instruction manual.  The answer is
there.

Or, you could specify the irq and ioaddr (port addr) settings you want
to use when you boot with the floppy:

	boot fd(0,a)/kernel -c

Do the same when you boot from disk.  Once you've got your system all
installed, make yourself a customized kernel that uses the irq and
port addr settings unique to your system.
