If you don't have a trakker you can ignore this.  You can should only
specify the drivers you need with the fdc_drivers option of ftape.o
(and make sure that you have a recent modutils >= 2.1.85)

If you have a trakker, look in
/usr/src/linux/Documentation/parport.txt how to set the IRQ.  The
trakker doesn't work without interrupts.
