Yes, that's almost the right solution (CONFIG_ISACARDS or CONFIG_MCA). I'll add

require MCA != ISA_CARDS

to the rulebase. Not that there are a lot of MCA machines out there but every little bit helps.


Does that mean you can't build a kernel which will work on both kinds of machines? If so, start over, broken idea.
