129 | There are two drivers for MFM/RLL/IDE disks. Most people use just | ||
130 | the new enhanced driver by itself. This option however installs the | ||
131 | old hard disk driver to control the primary IDE/disk interface in | ||
132 | the system, leaving the new enhanced IDE driver to take care of only | ||
133 | the 2nd/3rd/4th IDE interfaces. Doing this will prevent you from | ||
134 | having an IDE/ATAPI CD-ROM or tape drive connected to the primary | ||
135 | IDE interface. Choosing this option may be useful for older systems | ||
136 | which have MFM/RLL/ESDI controller+drives at the primary port | ||
137 | address (0x1f0), along with IDE drives at the secondary/3rd/4th port | ||
