kernel-tmb-2.6.17.14-7mdv2007.0.src.rpm


 The kernel-tmb series kernels uses modular ide, so to be able to boot
 from ide hdd (not SATA) you need the following line as first line 
 in /etc/modprobe.conf:

 alias ide-controller module_name
 
 where module_name is the kernel module name that matches your ide chipset.
 
 For example:

 atiixp for Ati chipsets, 
 piix for Intel chipsets,
 amd74xx for Amd & Nvidia chipsets, 
 via82cxxx for Via chipsets,
 and so on...

 If you added this line after you installed the kernel, you must recreate
 your initrd and rerun lilo to get your changes used. (If you use grub,
 forget about the lilo part)

 If you have an IDE CD or DVD player/recorder or a harddisk with other
 partitions than / attached to your ide-controller, and your other 
 harddisks  attacched to SATA or SCSI, you need to add the module_name 
 to /etc/modprobe.preload instead to get it to work.
 
 If you have problems with usb (error "device not accepting address"),
 add the line:

 options usbcore old_scheme_first=1 
 
 to /etc/modprobe.conf
