1 This file describes the floppy driver.
13 The floppy driver is configured using the 'floppy=' option in
20 linux-2.6.9 floppy=thinkpad
25 append = "floppy=thinkpad"
27 Several floppy related options may be given, example:
29 linux-2.6.9 floppy=daring floppy=two_fdc
30 append = "floppy=daring floppy=two_fdc"
41 If you use the floppy driver as a module, use the following syntax:
42 modprobe floppy floppy="<options>"
45 modprobe floppy floppy="omnibook messages"
47 If you need certain options enabled every time you load the floppy driver,
50 options floppy floppy="omnibook messages"
55 The floppy driver related options are:
57 floppy=asus_pci
60 floppy=daring
61 Tells the floppy driver that you have a well behaved floppy controller.
65 floppy=0,daring
66 Tells the floppy driver that your floppy controller should be used
69 floppy=one_fdc
70 Tells the floppy driver that you have only one floppy controller.
73 floppy=two_fdc
74 floppy=<address>,two_fdc
75 Tells the floppy driver that you have two floppy controllers.
76 The second floppy controller is assumed to be at <address>.
80 floppy=thinkpad
81 Tells the floppy driver that you have a Thinkpad. Thinkpads use an
84 floppy=0,thinkpad
85 Tells the floppy driver that you don't have a Thinkpad.
87 floppy=omnibook
88 floppy=nodma
89 Tells the floppy driver not to use Dma for data transfers.
91 DMA channel for the floppy driver. This option is also useful
102 If you have a FIFO-able FDC, the floppy driver automatically
106 floppy=yesdma
107 Tells the floppy driver that a workable DMA channel is available.

120 mode. If this is higher, the floppy driver tolerates more

141 floppy=<drive>,<type>,cmos
143 you have more than two floppy drives (only two can be

177 floppy operation less efficient due to unneeded cache
183 floppy=debug

195 floppy=<nr>,irq
196 Sets the floppy IRQ to <nr> instead of 6.
198 floppy=<nr>,dma
199 Sets the floppy DMA channel to <nr> instead of 2.
