Hi All,

I am running kernel 2.4.19-pre10. I have an internal ATAPI Zip drive connected as primary slave to device file /dev/hdb. I want to use the ide-floppy driver in stead of the scsi emulation (ide-scsi), but kernel always picksup the ide-scsi.

Is there a way, such as kernel parameter, so that the kernel uses the ide-floppy in stead. Can I do things like,

hdb=floppy

or

floppy=hdb

or

hdb=ide-floppy /* <- This did not work */

Thank you all in advance,
Emre
