	X-Authentication-Warning: freefall.freebsd.org: Host localhost.cdrom.com [127.0.0.1] didn't use HELO protocol
	To: stable, announce
	Subject: Heads up! EisaConf changes to -stable
	Date: Thu, 04 Jan 1996 01:05:58 -0800
	From: "Justin T. Gibbs" <gibbs@freefall.freebsd.org>

	I've just commited the eisaconf code from -current to -stable.
	The main reason for doing this was to allow me to bring the new
	aic7xxx driver into -stable easily as well as make any future
	syncing between the two trees in this area less difficult.  There
	haven't been any bug reports logged against the eisaconf code since
	its been in 2.2 (except for the complaint about interrupt statistics),
	so I don't think it will cause any problems.  Please let me know
	if it does.

	You will have to adjust your kernel config file once you sync
	to these changes.

	If you use the ahb driver (Adaptec 174X controllers),  your
	config should look like this:

	controller      eisa0
	controller      ahb0

	If you use the ahc driver (Adaptec 2742/2842/2940/3940), your
	config should look like this:

	controller	eisa0	# Only necessary for 2742/2842/and aic7770 controllers
	controller	ahc0	# You need two ahc controller definitions for each
				# 3940 in your system, so for a single 3940, you
				# would have an aditional "controller ahc1" in
				# your file.

	If you use th bt driver (Buslogic 445, 5xx, 7xx, 9xx), your config
	should look like this:

	controller	eisa0	# Only necessary for 7xx cards
	controller      bt0     at isa? port "IO_BT0" bio irq ? vector bt_isa_intr
