Find out whether you have ISA slots on your motherboard. ISA is the
name of a bus system, i.e. the way the CPU talks to the other stuff
inside your box. Other bus systems are PCI, EISA, MicroChannel
(MCA) or VESA. ISA is an older system, now being displaced by PCI;
newer boards don't support it. If you have ISA, say Y, otherwise N.
ISA is found on Espresso only and is not supported currently.

config EISA

---help---
The Extended Industry Standard Architecture (EISA) bus was
developed as an open alternative to the IBM MicroChannel bus.
The EISA bus provided some of the features of the IBM MicroChannel
bus while maintaining backward compatibility with cards made for
the older ISA bus. The EISA bus saw limited use between 1988 and
1995 when it was made obsolete by the PCI bus.
Say Y here if you are building a kernel for an EISA-based machine.
Otherwise, say N.

EISA is not supported.

help
MicroChannel Architecture is found in some IBM PS/2 machines and
laptops. It is a bus system similar to PCI or ISA. See
<file:Documentation/mca.txt> (and especially the web page given
there) before attempting to build an MCA bus kernel.
EISA is not supported.

The PCI-HOWTO, available from
<http://www.linuxdoc.org/docs.html#howto>, contains valuable
information about which PCI hardware does work under Linux and which
doesn't.
CONFIG_PCI is needed for all JavaStation's (including MrCoffee),
CP-1200, JavaEngine-1, Corona, Red October, and Serengeti SGSC.
All of these platforms are extremely obscure, so say N if unsure.
