10.2 The Serial drivers

Please see linux/Documentation/ and/or the README files in linux/drivers/char for the full

details of all the options that the following support.

digi= DigiBoard Driver

riscom8= RISCom/8 Multiport Serial Driver

baycom= Baycom Serial/Parallel Radio Modem

11. Other Hardware Devices

Any other devices that didn't fit into any of the above categories got lumped together here.

11.1 Ethernet Devices (`ether=', `netdev=')

Different drivers make use of different parameters, but they all at least share having an IRQ, an I/O port base

value, and a name. In its most generic form, it looks something like this:

ether=irq,iobase[,param_1[,param_2,...param_8]]],name

The first non−numeric argument is taken as the name. The param_n values (if applicable) usually have

different meanings for each different card/driver. Typical param_n values are used to specify things like

shared memory address, interface selection, DMA channel and the like.

The most common use of this parameter is to force probing for a second ethercard, as the default is to only

probe for one (with 2.4 and older kernels). This can be accomplished with a simple:

ether=0,0,eth1

Note that the values of zero for the IRQ and I/O base in the above example tell the driver(s) to autoprobe.

IMPORTANT NOTE TO MODULE USERS: The above will not force a probe for a second card if you are

using the driver(s) as run time loadable modules (instead of having them complied into the kernel). Most

Linux distributions use a bare bones kernel combined with a large selection of modular drivers. The ether=

only applies to drivers compiled directly into the kernel.

The Ethernet−HowTo has complete and extensive documentation on using multiple cards and on the

card/driver specific implementation of the param_n values where used. Interested readers should refer to the

section in that document on their particular card for more complete information. Ethernet−HowTo

11.2 The Floppy Disk Driver (`floppy=')

There are many floppy driver options, and they are all listed in floppy.txt in linux/Documentation.

There are too many options in that file to list here. Instead, only those options that may be required to get a

Linux install to proceed on less than normal hardware are reprinted here.
