I need to add EIDE controllers to some older Dell 486 ISA/IDE systems.  I
need to do this in order to use the larger ( > 1 MB) drives and have
multiple bootable partitions spanning the entire disk. 

Can you recommend an ISA EIDE controller that would work well with
this system.  We don't need the I/O ports that come with some of
these cards, but it's ok if they're there as long as they can be
disabled.

Also, do you know if anything in config.sys would need to be changed
if we switch to that controller?

In order to disable the onboard IDE controller, is it just a matter
of going into system setup and disabling it?

Thanks for any help.
