2 # TACPI DControl ACPI module behaviour
6 If the acpi_load variable is set, the ACPI module will be loaded.
7 The use of ACPI can be disabled with:
10 set hint.acpi.0.disabled="1"
12 Note that the ACPI autodetection sets a number of hints to
13 pass information to the ACPI module. These should not be
14 overridden, or system behaviour will be undefined.

32 # Tset Snum_ide_disks DSet the number of IDE disks
34 NOTE: this variable is deprecated, use root_disk_unit instead.
36 set num_ide_disks=<value>
38 When booting from a SCSI disk on a system with one or more IDE disks,
39 and where the IDE disks are the default boot device, it is necessary
40 to tell the kernel how many IDE disks there are in order to have it
41 correctly locate the SCSI disk you are booting from.

44 # Tset Sboot_userconfig DStart Userconfig
48 Requests that the kernel's interactive device configuration program
49 be run when the kernel is booted.

52 # Tset Sroot_disk_unit DForce the root disk unit number.
54 set root_disk_unit=<value>
56 If the code which detects the disk unit number for the root disk is
57 confused, eg. by a mix of SCSI and IDE disks, or IDE disks with
58 gaps in the sequence (eg. no primary slave), the unit number can be
59 forced by setting this variable.
