Hello List,

Somewhere in 2.6.x kernels, IDE disk configuration option IDE_DISK_STROKE (to achieve full native capacity of hard-disk drives sidestepping BIOS limitations) went and one could set this as boot time kernel options. But, as of kernel-2.6.11-1.1226_FC4,seems like this option was applied intelligently by the kernel.

I could not find how this has changed from then to 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4 kernel either through online documentation or google. This kernel doesn't take it as a boot time option nor is it onfigurable in kernel compile settings. Does any body have any idea ?

Regards,
