NAME

     mca -- introduction to machine-independent MCA bus support and drivers

SYNOPSIS

     mca0 at mainbus?

     options MCAVERBOSE

     Machine-dependent; depends on the bus topology and MCA bus interface of your system. Typical MCA buses are connected directly to the main
     system bus.

DESCRIPTION

     NetBSD includes a machine-independent MCA bus subsystem and several machine-independent MCA device drivers.
