If you want to use the floppy disk drive(s) of your PC under Linux,
say Y. Information about this driver, especially important for IBM
Thinkpad users, is contained in
- <file:Documentation/blockdev/floppy.rst>.
+ <file:Documentation/admin-guide/blockdev/floppy.rst>.
That file also contains the location of the Floppy driver FAQ as
well as location of the fdutils package used to configure additional
parameters of the driver at run time.
your computer's parallel port. Most of them are actually IDE devices
using a parallel port IDE adapter. This option enables the PARIDE
subsystem which contains drivers for many of these external drives.

+ Read <file:Documentation/admin-guide/blockdev/paride.rst> for more information.
If you have said Y to the "Parallel-port support" configuration
option, you may share a single port between your printer and other
userland (making server and client physically the same computer,
communicating using the loopback network device).

especially about where to find the server code, which runs in user
space and does not need special kernel support.

Note that the kernel command line option "ramdisk=XX" is now obsolete.
