[Voyage-linux] How to disable DMA?

[Ikem Krueger]

I have an Intel Pentium III with 700 MHz and 512MB RAM.

I installed Voyage Linux 0.8.5.

I need to disable DMA for my harddisks.

Usually I would do that with the boot parameter "libata.force=2:pio2".

That's not applied.

I created "/etc/modprobe.d/libata.conf" and wrote:

options libata force=2:pio2

And updated the initramfs with:

sudo update-initramfs -u

I checked the initramfs and the file is there.

But still not applied.

What am I doing wrong?
