29.Dt PODULEBUS 4
30.Os
31.Sh NAME
32.Nm podulebus
33.Nd Acorn Expansion Card bus driver
34.Sh SYNOPSIS
35.Cd podulebus0 at ioc0 bank 4
36.Pq Nx Ns /acorn26
37.Cd podulebus0 at root
38.Pq Nx Ns /acorn32
39.Sh DESCRIPTION
40The
41.Nm
42driver handles the expansion-card interface in Archimedes machines and
43their successors.
44This includes conventional expansion cards, mini
45expansion cards (as introduced in the A3000), network expansion cards
46(as introduced in the A3020), DEBI expansion cards (as introduced in
47the Risc PC), and Mk II network cards (also introduced in the Risc PC).
48Drivers for individual cards attach as children of the
49.Nm
50device.
51.Pp
52.Nx
53includes several machine-independent expansion card device drivers.
54There are also some device drivers which are specific to
55.Nx Ns /acorn26
56or
57.Nx Ns /acorn32 .
