[opensuse-kernel] Disabling probing for PATA drives

Tejun, Roman asked on the german opensuse list if there are still ways to disable probing PATA drives: I have have a box with Intel US15W chipset which has one SATA drive attached to it via PATA-SATA-Converter. As I naturally want to boot the thing as fast as possible I'd like to prohibit probing the non-existant drive. Before libata you could use something like hdb=noprobe. Is there any way to do that today? Searching the web and the sources didn't turn up something usefull. cheers Philipp -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+help@opensuse.org
