I think we're probably talking about the bus that connects the physical drives to the controller (in other words, the ide cable), rather than the pci bus speed. I *assume* it got progressively faster with CPUs up to 33mhz, then stayed constant due to design limitations, until ATA-66 came along. Not sure why you'd want to set it to 66 unless you have ATA-66, though, and that has a different kernel option iirc. I suppose there must be a few unusual exceptions. -- Lee. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
