96 Many cards based on this chipset do not have flash memory
97 and need their firmware loaded at start-up. If yours is
98 one of these, you will need to provide a firmware image
99 to be loaded into the card by the driver. The Atmel
100 firmware package can be downloaded from
101 <http://www.thekelleys.org.uk/atmel>
