Help text

This is support for the IBM SCSI adapter found in many of the PS/2 series computers. These machines have an MCA bus, so you need to answer Y to "MCA support" as well and read Documentation/mca.txt.

If the adapter isn't found during boot (a common problem for models 56, 57, 76, and 77) you'll need to use the 'ibmmcascsi=<pun>' kernel option, where <pun> is the id of the SCSI subsystem (usually 7, but if that doesn't work check your reference diskette). Owners of model 95 with a LED-matrix-display can in addition activate some activity info like under OS/2, but more informative, by setting 'ibmmcascsi=display' as an additional kernel parameter. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot loader about how to pass options to the kernel.

To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called ibmmca.
