No software comes with the AHA-154x adapter.  As it comes it has an INT13 AT
BIOS, so it would plug in and go for MS-DOS.  SCO and ISC both support the
adapter so no need for XENIX/UNIX software for these two flavors.

If the boot disk does not use the INT13 BIOS and talks directly to the I/O
controller, then the software would have to know about the AHA-154x adapter.
The adapter is not register/port compatible with the standard ST-506
controller.  I beleive this may be the problem.  First time I have heard of
this game.
