If you configure IDE support as a module (CONFIG_IDE), you will soon find that ide-std.o and ide-no.o are missing. This is because arch/mips/lib/Makefile says: obj-$(CONFIG_IDE) += ide-std.o ide-no.o Here are the possible fixes. I'd like to hear your feedbacks. 1) change config-shared.in file so that CONFIG_IDE only has a binary state (y or n) 2) change Makefile so that ide-std.o and ide-no.o are always included. Waste about 1K for systems don't use them at all. 3) use some smart trick in Makefile so that we include those two files only if CONFIG_IDE is 'y' or 'm'. (How?) Jun
