 EATA ISA/EISA/PCI (DPT and generic EATA/DMA-compliant boards) support
 CONFIG_SCSI_EATA
   This driver supports all the EATA/DMA-compliant SCSI host adapters
-  and does not need any BIOS32 or PCI BIOS service.
-  Only ISA (0x1F0, 0x170, 0x230, 0x330) and EISA (0x1C88 through 0xFC88)

+  DPT ISA and all EISA i/o addresses are probed looking for the "EATA"

   Note that there is also another driver for the same hardware:
   "EATA-DMA support". You should enable only one of them.

-SMB long filename support (EXPERIMENTAL)
-CONFIG_SMB_LONG
-  SMBFS was designed to support long filenames using the LanManager
-  2.0 protocol. I had to find out that the support for long filenames
-  sometimes causes problems, which can even result in kernel OOPSes. I
-  did not yet find out what the problem is, but hopefully I will find
-  this bug eventually. As many people seem to run long filenames with
-  no problems, I leave this support in the kernel as an option. The

+  If you want to connect to a share exported by Windows 95, you should
