NAME

     pnpbios -- support for embedded devices on the motherboard

DESCRIPTION

     The pnpbios driver enumerates embedded ISA devices on the motherboard whose BIOS supports ``Plug and Play BIOS Specification''.  It assigns
     ISA bus resources (interrupt line, DMA channel, I/O ports, and memory region) to each device and activates it.

     If it cannot assign necessary resources to a device without causing conflict with other devices in the system, the device will not be acti-
     vated and will be unavailable to programs.

CAVEATS

     There is no explicit way to disable individual embedded devices.  The pnpbios driver will find all devices reported by the ``Plug and Play
     (PnP)'' BIOS and try to activate them all.

     There is no way to explicitly assign particular resource to a device.  The resource assignment is fully automatic and there is no provision
     for manual override.
