No, the first dependency is still in place. It could also be written as depends on (ISA && ISA_DMA_API) || EISA || PCI which might be easier to understand. Do you want me to resubmit it like that? > > Why not ISA_DMA_API || EISA || PCI ? That would indeed make it possible to enable it on ancient systems that have none of ISA, EISA or PCI but still support ISA_DMA_API, e.g. for a floppy controller. A theoretical downside is that a system with a PCI advansys adapter and ISA slots but no ISA_DMA_API would not be able to build this. As far as I know, such a system does not exist. > Gnaa.
