+If more than one HFC-PCI cards are installed, a specific card may be selected
+at the hisax module load command line. Supply the load command with the desired
+IO-address of the desired card. 
+Example:
+There tree cards installed in your machine at IO-base addresses 0xd000, 0xd400 
+and 0xdc00
+If you want to use the card at 0xd400 standalone you should supply the insmod
+or depmod with type=35 io=0xd400.
+If you want to use all three cards, but the order needs to be at 0xdc00,0xd400,
+0xd000 you may give the parameters type=35,35,35 io=0xdc00,0xd400,0xd00 
+Then the desired card will be the initialised in the desired order.
+If the io parameter is used the io addresses of all used cards should be 
+supplied else the parameter is assumed 0 and a auto search for a free card is
+invoked which may not give the wanted result.
