The TLVC documentation Wiki has been through a significant revamp. All documents have been edited, content reorganised (in some cased moved), the Developer Notes document has been expanded and subsequently split into several pieces to make it more manageable. And there is a lot of new contents.

In particular, there is a new section with quite a bit of detail on Memory Structure and the buffer system. There is also an important new piece on bootopts detailing all options, defaults and more. A slightly less voluminous (and more general, 101 type) section on DMA, PIO, polling an IO interrupts has been added to the Technical Notes Wiki.

And finally, the chapter on Dream System II - the XT system, has been expanded and completed.

There are still many 'blanks', chapters with no content (but lots of invisible ambition!). Part of the plan is to edit and merge relevant pieces from the old ELKS documentation into the Wiki collection.

Comments, contributions, notes about errors and omissions - input of all kinds solicited!

Another documentation update, this time a chapter on floppy types and autoprobing (Developer Notes pt. III) and on boot messages explained - a detailed rundown on various boot/startup messages and what they mean - in the Boot, startup and Runtime configuration Wiki.
