Hmm, what's the intent of the change? IDE, or more properly ATA, was originally an ISA-only device and is still only available as ISA-style implementations, AFAIK. I'd prefer it to be available only if any of CONFIG_ISA, CONFIG_EISA, CONFIG_PCI (unsure about CONFIG_MCA) is set. That said, the place for such decisions seems to be inappropriate currently. It'd be much more elegant just to source all relevant drivers, net, etc. Config.in scripts unconditionally and make global enable/disable decisions at the top of the relevant script, like e.g. drivers/message/i2o/Config.in already does. -- + Maciej W.
