Message-Id: <20030606142431.7ba80686.skraw@ithnet.com> Organization: ith Kommunikationstechnik GmbH X-Mailer: Sylpheed version 0.9.2 (GTK+ 1.2.10; i686-pc-linux-gnu) Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org for certain devices as boot-option in kernel 2.4.20 ? E.g. you have three devices and want one of them (not all) to come up PIO instead of DMA. As using hdparm gives errors and delays for about 20-30 seconds on this device it would be better to turn it off right from the beginning. Regards, Stephan
