Since the 21040 is available on both EISA and PCI boards, one must be careful
in how one defines the 21040 in the kernel config file.
-.Pp
-On the alpha platform, disk space requirements on the installation media
-cause the
-.Nm
-driver to be preferred to the
-.Nm dc
-driver.
-However, the
-.Nm dc
-will perform better on some hardware; if this is the case, it is advised to
-rename the
-.Pa /etc/hostname.de*
-files to
-.Pa /etc/hostname.dc* ,
-and disable the
-.Nm
-driver in the kernel, so that the
-.Nm dc
-driver will be used.
-Refer to
-.Xr boot_config 8
-for details on how to disable drivers in the kernel.
