The FYS OS: code named 'Konan'

Old news related to FYSOS.

25 June 2009 Have worked with and I think I fixed the UHCI problems.  I have also
added a lot of support for the EHCI controller.  With a little more work, I believe I will
have a working High Speed EHCI stack.  A few other additions and bug fixes were added too.
A new image should be posted soon.

08 Apr 2009 The UHCI is having problems.  I need to do some work with it.  The OHCI is
working well.  Multiple downstream hubs, Mass Storage Devices, HID's, etc., all work as expected.
I have only had once, where I needed to disconnect-reconnect a device to get it to work.  However,
the UHCI doesn't work as well as I had hoped.  I bought some more hardware to test with and
it didn't work as well.  I will put some work into fixing it and see why.

03 Apr 2009 Have completely re-written the usb topo-stack and how a device is added to and removed from.
Both the UHCI and OHCI should work.  The number of downstream external hubs is no longer limited to one.  You can
now read from a USB flash drive, though the UHCI may not reset it correctly, the OHCI does.  The mouse works,
I just don't have anything to use it for yet.  I need to write code for the keyboard, and other devices.
I need to work on my HID parser so that I don't need specific code for each HID device.
The new image below should have the new OHCI and UHCI and USB stack working.  Please give it a try and
let me know what happens.  Thanks.

28 Mar 2009 New image file now supports OHCI and external Hubs with a few other fixes and enhancements.

I have also done some work with that embr code I thought I would
try.  I might work with it a little more and place a hard drive image here.
