+ The Extended Industry Standard Architecture (EISA) bus was
+ developed as an open alternative to the IBM MicroChannel bus.
+
+ The EISA bus provided some of the features of the IBM MicroChannel
+ bus while maintaining backward compatibility with cards made for
+ the older ISA bus. The EISA bus saw limited use between 1988 and
+ 1995 when it was made obsolete by the PCI bus.
+
+ Say Y here if you are building a kernel for an EISA-based machine.
+
+ Otherwise, say N.

+ help
+ Activate this option if your system contains a Vesa Local
+ Bus (VLB) card that identify itself as an EISA card (such as
+ the Adaptec AHA-284x).
+
+ When in doubt, say N.

+ Activate this option if your system contains a PCI to EISA
+ bridge. If your system have both PCI and EISA slots, you
+ certainly need this option.
+
+ When in doubt, say Y.

+ bool "EISA virtual root device"
+ depends on EISA && (ALPHA || X86)
+ default y
+ help
+ Activate this option if your system only have EISA bus
+ (no PCI slots). The Alpha Jensen is an example of such
+ a system.
+
+ When in doubt, say Y.
+
+config EISA_NAMES
+ bool "EISA device name database"
+ depends on EISA
+ default y
+ help
+ By default, the kernel contains a database of all known EISA
+ device names to make the information in sysfs comprehensible
+ to the user. This database increases size of the kernel
+ image by about 40KB, but it gets freed after the system
+ boots up, so it doesn't take up kernel memory. Anyway, if
+ you are building an installation floppy or kernel for an
+ embedded system where kernel image size really matters, you
+ can disable this feature and you'll get device ID instead of
+ names.
+
+ When in doubt, say Y.
