3) I removed two files in documentation that are almost entirely PReP specific. The remaining lines looked uninteresting.quoted

-2. IBM CHRP - - I have only tested this on the 43P-150. Build the kernel with the cs4232 - set as a module and load the module with irq=9 dma=1 dma2=2 io=0x550This section is CHRP-specific. The cs4232 driver also worked on the CHRP LongTrail. But I don't remember if the parameter values above also applied to LongTrail. I do remember it didn't work without specifing the right parameters, so you probably want to keep this section.
Isn't LongTrail support LongDead ? Can we still boot these things at all ? Anybody still has a functional one ? Cheers, Ben.
