H A D | NOTES | diff d61e6649d56cffcf6a471ac68a9d5092e3ca1ced Sun Jul 09 14:34:53 CEST 2000 Alexander Langer <alex@FreeBSD.org> Since this file is doc now, reorganize its structure.
Currently, many drivers support more than one bus of ISA, EISA, MCA, PCI.
Before this commit, we had, for example, some SCSI devices listed more than once, iirc, some up to three times (ISA/EISA, MCA, PCI).
Since now the "device" line is common for all of them and they only differ for the hints stuff, I did the following:
First, list Busses: (E)ISA, MCA, PCI and explain, that only ISA needs the hints stuff.
Move NIC/SCSI stuff, which were the only split sections, behind these stuff. Describe all drivers only one time and list all supported chips.
List all device (+ hints for ISA, if possible).
I've also added few additional supported chips to some drivers, xl for example and some SCSI drivers.
Also, softupdates is no longer disabled by default, so the comment should not say, it's not enabled by default due to license issues.
