1.4 POINT FOR ATTENTION
The AR-B1479 CPU is a consumer II with C4 as a version that included some bugs on it. The effect is the use of
floppy in WIN95 would be unable. The bug can be revised in CPU with C5 as a version. But according to ST as
the original manufacturer, C5 just can normally be produced at least in October. The bug still exists so it is better
to use the C4. Therefore, we decided to adopt no support as our temporary strategy.
In AR-B1479B section, we have to install WIN 95, and then set up the Floppy driver as the additional step in order
to drive the AR-B1479B Floppy device properly.
