1. Release note
   This package is ver 1.0, adapted from VIA 3-mode floppy driver
   3mflp132.exe. The driver is not logo'ed because the 3-mode floppy
   drive is used only in Japan, and Microsoft WHQL offers no logo
   process for this particular device category.

   VIA provides the user with this sample component implementation,
   to ease development and test effort. The user, however, is advised
   to obtain the latest available driver and author his or her own
   components.

3. Import the driver component
(1) Copy all the files to a directory, e.g. "D:\VIADRIVERS\3mflp132\".
(2) Create a directory, e.g. "D:\VIA_Repositories\", if there is
    none.
(3) Open Component Database Manager under Microsoft Windows
    Embedded Studio.
(4) Click on the "Repository" and then "Repository Roots..." buttons.
    Type in the complete path of the repositories directory,
    for example "D:\VIA_Repositories\". Click on the "Add" button
    and answer "Yes".
(5) Click on the "Database", "Import...", and then "..." buttons.
    Navigate to directory "D:\VIADRIVERS\3mflp132\" and then choose
    one .SLD file. Next, pull down "Repository root" drop-down
    and select "D:\VIA_Repositories\". Click on the "Import" and
    then "Close" buttons to close the dialog. Note two .SLD files
    need to be imported.
(6) Close the "Component Database Manager".

4. Known issue
After users importing the 3-mode floppy driver components, the
standard floppy driver components in database become invalid.
In case you need to include the standard floppy driver components
into your images for other projects, you may either mark those
two 3-mode floppy driver components as end-of-life, or remove them
from database. For more information, search the on-line help for
the "set end of life" keyword.
