 Updated: Mon, 14 Apr 2008 15:41:24 +0100
 Status: works
 
-Configuration Options:
-  [0] - PCI bus of device (optional)
-  [1] - PCI slot of device (optional)
-  If bus/slot is not specified, the first supported
-  PCI device found will be used.
+Configuration Options: not applicable, uses PCI auto config
 
 There is code to support AI commands, but it may not work.
