Re: [SLE] DMA

Does this mean that I must reinstall from scratch? I cannot find anywhere in yast or yast2 which allows me to select Safe Setting boot mode. Thanks for the note, I would like to try this to see if it resolves the strange messages. Jim 12/29/01 12:16:25 PM, Alexandr Malusek wrote:

This might have been mentioned before, but I was wondering what happened to dma transfer in SuSE? Used to be able to start and stop this via rcdma or soemhting similer, has this been integrated now?

The following is from the SuSE Linux System and Reference Manual:

12.2.4 From 7.2 to 7.3 ... Kernel 2.4 which is included in SuSE Linux has IDE-DMA turned on by default. The YaST2 module System tuning (package yast2-config-tune) as well as the back end idedma have, therefore, become obsolete. If you have any problems related to DMA, you can always fall back on the Installation -- Safe Settings boot option.
