CD-ROM Module Parameters


Even though parameters are specified after loading the driver disk and specifying the device, one of the more commonly used parameters (hdX=cdrom) can be entered at the boot prompt (boot:) during installation. This exception to the rule is allowed since it deals with support for IDE/ATAPI CD-ROMs, which is already part of the kernel.

Note

Not all of the CD-ROM drives that are listed in Table C-1 are supported. Please check the Hardware Compatibility List on Red Hat’s website at http://hardware.redhat.com to make sure your CD-ROM drive is supported.

In the following tables, most modules listed without any parameters can either be auto-probed to find the hardware or they require you to manually change settings in the module source code and recompile.

Using Multiple Ethernet Cards

You can use multiple Ethernet cards in one machine. If each card uses a different driver (for example, a 3c509 and a DE425), you simply need to add alias (and possibly options) lines for each card to /etc/modules.conf. See Chapter 13 for more information.

If any two Ethernet cards use the same driver (such as two 3c509 cards or a 3c595 and a 3c905), you will need to either give the two card addresses on the driver’s options line (for ISA cards) or simply add one alias line for each card (for PCI cards).

For additional information about using more than one Ethernet card, see the Linux Ethernet-HOWTO at http://www.redhat.com/mirrors/LDP/HOWTO/Ethernet-HOWTO.html.
