hda=noprobe fails



I install etch on an old system, but get boot messages below:

Probing takes too much time. As I use scsi disk, I want to disable probing, so I read files in
kerenl-doc-2.6 package and change a line in menu.lst to:

kernel		/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-5-686 root=/dev/sda4 ro noisapnp hda=noprobe 

After grub-install and reboot, "hda=noprobe" does not have any effect.
