Good morning,
 On a clients workstation at boot I see this message displayed, which I
have never noticed before, that refers to idebus speed. This machine has
a 100Mhz bus and 128meg pc100 ram.

Claims that can be overidden with idebus=xxx ?  Possibly someone on the
list could explain where this statement would need to be in order to
correctly establish, and take advantage of the 100Mhz bus ? I don't
recognize this as an option in Lilo.

        Thank you,
                Dave
