Hi,

It is a config error, CONFIG_PDC202XX_FORCE depends on
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_PDC202XX_NEW. So even if you set it manually
in .config to y, the change won't be propagated.

Here is a quick patch to make force option visible for both old/new pdc.
More elegant solution will be to split force option for old/new pdc
as suggested by #fixme in Config.in.

Patch agaist 2.4.21-rc1, if it works for you please forward to Marcello.

Regards,
