ATA/IDE fixed−disk device parameters
The following parameters can be specified in ide.opts:
DO_FSTAB
A boolean (y/n) setting: specifies if an entry should be added to /etc/fstab for this
device.
DO_FSCK
A boolean (y/n) setting: specifies if the filesystem should be checked before being mounted,
with ``fsck −Ta''.
DO_MOUNT
A boolean (y/n) setting: specifies if this device should be automatically mounted at card
insertion time.
FSTYPE, OPTS, MOUNTPT
The filesystem type, mount options, and mount point to be used for the fstab entry and/or
mounting the device.
Here is an example ide.opts file to mount the first partition of any ATA/IDE card on /mnt.

Diagnosing problems with ATA/IDE adapters
• An IO port conflict may cause the IDE driver to misdetect the drive geometry and report
``INVALID GEOMETRY: 0 PHYSICAL HEADS?''. To fix, try excluding the selected IO port
range in /etc/pcmcia/config.opts.
• Some IDE drives violate the PCMCIA specification by requiring a longer time to spin up than the
maximum allowed card setup time. Starting with release 3.0.6, the ide_cs driver will automatically
