This driver works as a module.
When included as a module, parameters can be passed on the insmod/modprobe
command line:
+ irq=xx[,...] the interrupt(s)
+ base=xx[,...] the port or base address(es) (for port or memory mapped, resp.)
+ card=xx[,...] card type(s):
+ 0 = NCR5380,
+ 1 = NCR53C400,
+ 2 = NCR53C400A,
+ 3 = Domex Technology Corp 3181E (DTC3181E)
+ 4 = Hewlett Packard C2502
+
+These old-style parameters can support only one card:
ncr_irq=xx the interrupt
ncr_addr=xx the port or base address (for port or memory
mapped, resp.)
