Hello,
I tried to install Windows ME to a hard drive with an existing Debian system. During
the install the system insisted on formatting drive C, and since I had created an
extra primary partition marked bootable to be C under Linux I figured why not. After
reaching 100% the install said

Setting speed and duplex on _both_ sides of an ethernet link
Hi,
some of our computer engineers are telling me that my debian box

How to do it?
Where is the configuration file for that?

Well since idecd is not a module, you need the append line.
The only way to change idecd to a module is to compile a new kernel.
But your kernel must also set CONFIG_SCSI and CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SR.
