Hi,

Also have a look at Documentation/ide.txt.
I read this already. Searching for "nodma" in this document gives only
one line:
"ide=nodma" : disable DMA globally for the IDE subsystem.
If the documentation is correct hda=nodma and ideX=nodma should not
work. I use kernel 2.6.23.1 at the moment.
grep nodma Documentation/ide.txt
"hdx=nodma" : disallow DMA
ide=foo_option is for the whole ide sub-system where ideX|hdX=foo_option is just for that HDD.
/usr/src/linux-2.6.23.1$ grep nodma Documentation/ide.txt
"ide=nodma" : disable DMA globally for the IDE subsystem.
/usr/src/linux-2.6.21.5$ grep nodma Documentation/ide.txt
"ide=nodma" : disable DMA globally for the IDE subsystem.
/usr/src/linux-2.6.12# grep nodma Documentation/ide.txt
"ide=nodma" : disable DMA globally for the IDE subsystem.
Sorry, but I can not find this option, and it does not work. Which
kernel do you use?
Thanks
Olli
