258 This is useful if you have an ATAPI device for which no native

260 you can then use this emulation together with an appropriate SCSI
261 device driver. In order to do this, say Y here and to "SCSI support"
262 and "SCSI generic support", below. You must then provide the kernel
263 command line "hdx=ide-scsi" (try "man bootparam" or see the
264 documentation of your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to
265 pass options to the kernel at boot time) for devices if you want the
266 native EIDE sub-drivers to skip over the native support, so that
267 this SCSI emulation can be used instead.
