Documentation is in the kernel source under Documentation. From the
kernel-parameters.txt file:
elevator= [IOSCHED]
Format: {"anticipatory" | "cfq" | "deadline" | "noop"}
See Documentation/block/as-iosched.txt and
Documentation/block/deadline-iosched.txt for details.
You might try searching kernel-newbie.org for related info.
