Only for clarifying: IRQ9 is on B04 on 8-bit connector, on
same pin as previous IRQ2. What happened is that PIC1-IRQ2
was used to cascade PIC2, and second irq on PIC2 was
connected to B04 and renamed IRQ9. Sometimes this signal is
named IRQ2/9.
The new IRQ's on the small part of the 16 bit ISA connector
are IRQ10 (D03), IRQ11 (D04), IRQ12 (D05), IRQ14 (D07) and
IRQ15 (D06).
