loadppclib, load060lib and load040lib are tools that can be used to load
ppc.library, 68060.library or 68040.library from disk with Blizzard PPC
cards.

This is handy if you've disabled FlashROM libraries with BPPCFix.

BPPCFix program itself is not included. Use Frank Wille's BPPCFix program
or BlizKick's BPPCFix & BPPCFix040 modules to disable the FlashROM
libraries.


Features:

  - loadppclib is faster than InitPPCLib. InitPPCLib takes 3.3 seconds
    on my 68060  at  50MHz while loading with loadppclib is almost instant.
  - loadppclib can terminate WarpOS (well, kindof).
  - loadppclib work with new BlizKick-BPPCFix 1.2.
  - easy to use shell commands.
  - full source code (in AmigaE) is included.


  LOADPPCLIB USAGE
  ----------------

Format:        LOADPPCLIB [LIBRARY <name>] [FORCE]

Template:      LIBRARY,FORCE/S

Purpose:       Load ppc.library to memory with Blizzard PPC

Specification:

LIBRARY argument can be used to specify full path to ppc.library.
Default is 'libs:ppc.library', but you might want to use some other
path, like: 'work:mylibs/ppc.library.orig'.

The ppc.library will not be loaded if the library is already in
memory.

If WarpOS kernel is active the ppc.library will not be installed
unless you use FORCE option. Note that if you FORCE the ppc.library
WarpOS will cease to work until system is rebooted.

Also note that correct 680x0.library must have been loaded before
this program will work.


Example1:

1> LOADPPCLIB

Install the library from 'libs:ppc.library' file. If WarpOS is
active do nothing.


Example2:

1> LOADPPCLIB work:mylibs/ppc.library.orig FORCE

Install the library from 'work:mylibs/ppc.library.orig' file, even
if the WarpOS kernel is active. If the WarpOS kernel is active it
will be terminated.


  LOAD060LIB USAGE
  ----------------

Format:        LOAD060LIB [LIBRARY <name>] [FORCE]

Template:      LIBRARY,FORCE/S

Purpose:       Load 68060.library to memory with Blizzard PPC

Specification:

LIBRARY argument can be used to specify full path to 68060.library.
Default is 'libs:68060.library', but you might want to use some other
path, like: 'work:mylibs/68060.library.orig'.

The 68060.library will not be loaded if the library is already in
memory.


Example:

1> LOAD060LIB work:mylibs/68060.library.orig

Install the 68060 library from 'work:mylibs/68060.library.orig' file.


  LOAD040LIB USAGE
  ----------------

Identical to LOAD060LIB except this is for Blizzard PPC cards with
68040 CPU.
