- bool "Old hard disk (MFM/RLL/IDE) driver"
- depends on !ARM || ARCH_RPC || ARCH_SHARK || BROKEN
- help
- There are two drivers for MFM/RLL/IDE hard disks. Most people use
- the newer enhanced driver, but this old one is still around for two
- reasons. Some older systems have strange timing problems and seem to
- work only with the old driver (which itself does not work with some
- newer systems). The other reason is that the old driver is smaller,
- since it lacks the enhanced functionality of the new one. This makes
- it a good choice for systems with very tight memory restrictions, or
- for systems with only older MFM/RLL/ESDI drives. Choosing the old
- driver can save 13 KB or so of kernel memory.
-
- If you want to use this driver together with the new one you have
- to use "hda=noprobe hdb=noprobe" kernel parameters to prevent the new
- driver from probing the primary interface.
-
- If you are unsure, then just choose the Enhanced IDE/MFM/RLL driver
- instead of this one. For more detailed information, read the
- Disk-HOWTO, available from
- <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
