It is not on/offboard case. It is primary/secondary boot device case.

Yes.

Once again - on some machines it is primary IDE (booting one), so we have
to give user possibility for 'onboarding' it. However it should depend on
CONFIG_PDC202XX_FORCE... hmm... but on others it is offboard so distro
compiled kernels might have problem here :\.
