Immediately after that is the line:
"A modified version of miBoot 1.0a3 [ http ] by Etsushi Kato. [This also
works with PDM motherboard video.]"
The source code for that version has additional code for PDM machines not
present in the Jeff Carr version, but as I explained before, the binary is
bad and should not be used.

Is this some kind of regression bug not present in the Jeff Carr version?
That doesn't seem possible, since prior to generating it, I made sure I
was able to generate an instruction-for-instruction duplicate of the Jeff
Carr version from the source.

It is set up for a special mishmash of CWPro 5.1, CWLite 6, Universal
Interfaces 3.4.2, some MetroWerks patches, and a few other things.
