Hi Alain et all,

Just wondering if there had been any developments on the floppy.c front ?

Regards

Yes, there has been. Attached is a patch. Sorry, it took a little bit longer than planned. Usage: insmod floppy.ko floppy="2,3,dma 6,4,irq two_fdc 4,6,cmos" (with TABs between the items, not spaces). This uses DMA=2 IRQ=6 for the first FDC, and DMA=3 and IRQ=4 for the second FDC. The patch has been made against 2.6.30, but should theoretically also apply to other kernels which are not too old. For the moment, it only works on Intel compatible processors (i386 and x86_64), as only that floppy.h file has been patched. Could you please test it, and tell me how it goes? If everything is ok, I'll do the other floppy.h files, and send it to Linus. Regards, Alain
