The Extended Industry Standard Architecture (EISA) bus was

developed as an open alternative to the IBM MicroChannel bus.

bus while maintaining backward compatibility with cards made for

the older ISA bus. The EISA bus saw limited use between 1988 and

1995 when it was made obsolete by the PCI bus.

This option prevents any floating-point instructions from being

compiled into the kernel, thereby the kernel doesn't save any

floating point context anymore during task switches, so this

kernel will only be usable on machines without a floating-point

The 68060 generally uses copyback caching of recently accessed data.

Copyback caching means that memory writes will be held in an on-chip

cache and only written back to memory some time later. Saying Y
|

here will force supervisor (kernel) accesses to use writethrough
|
|
caching. Writethrough caching means that data is written to memory

straight away, so that cache and memory data always agree.

Writethrough caching is less efficient, but is needed for some

drivers on 68060 based systems where the 68060 bus snooping signal

---help---
|
|
If you say Y here, it will be possible to use a serial port as the
|
|
system console (the system console is the device which receives all
|
|
kernel messages and warnings and which allows logins in single user
|
|
mode). This could be useful if some terminal or printer is connected
|
|
to that serial port.
|
|
|
|
Even if you say Y here, the currently visible virtual console
|
|
(/dev/tty0) will still be used as the system console by default, but
|
|
you can alter that using a kernel command line option such as
|
|
"console=ttyS1". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
|
|
your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the
|
|
kernel at boot time.)
|
|
|
|
If you don't have a VGA card installed and you say Y here, the
|
|
kernel will automatically use the first serial line, /dev/ttyS0, as
|
|
system console.
|
|
|
|
If unsure, say N.
