 This install applies to "Monolith" © 1991 Megawatts.

 Requirements:
 -------------
 This install requires WHDLoad and DIC to be in the path.
 These programs can be found in the WHDLoad package.
 To install from a different drive than DF0: select installation mode Expert.

 The installed demo requires 0.5 MB ChipMem (+0.9 MB for preload)

 It can be quit by pressing F10 (key can be changed with Tooltype "QuitKey=").


 Features:
 ---------
 - Full load from HD
 - DMA wait in replayer fixed (x2)
 - Byte write to volume register fixed
 - Write to $dff1da (buggy switch to PAL) fixed (x2)
 - Access faults fixed (x9)
 - All OS stuff patched (DoIO(), AddIntServer(), WaitBlit() etc.)
 - NewIcon (created by me)
 - Quit option that works on 68000 machines (default key is 'F10')


 This took quite a bit longer than expected as the code isn't exactly
 great, someone should've told the coder how dbf loops behave...
 All palette/fading routines are buggy and had to be fixed.
 Interrupts were installed using OS routines (AddIntServer) so they had
 to be completely recoded, that wasn't much of a problem though.
 Coder also tried to force PAL mode using a long write to $dff1da, needless
 to say that this had to be fixed as well.

 Stay safe and healthy everyone,
 Sting, 17.05.2020
