Someone with a Multi-Pak may want to have both the CoCo SDC and a real
floppy drive connected at the same time. This requires routing the SCS*
signal to the correct MPI slot since both controllers use the same
addressing. SDC-DOS handles this situation automatically but I have no idea
if NitrOS9 provides any kind of MPI routing facility for devices.
