[ale] boot parms ide=???

[Geoffrey]

I've been trying to research the various boot parameters available. 
Particularily regarding ide parms.  I find references to a doc 
README.ide in the kernel source, but I've got two sets of source, 
neither has the file.  I finally tracked one down, but no reference to 
the ide parms I'm looking for.

In particular, I had a box that had an ata66 controller and passing 
ide=66 was recognized.

Following that process I have another box with an ata100 controller, but 
when attempting ide=100, I receive an error that this is invalid.  Valid 
values are 20-66.

I've seen references to ide=100 in searches, so I assumed this was valid.

These are 2.4.19 kernels, pretty current.

Anyone care to shed some light on this??
