* configure.ac (--disable-default-device-drivers): Transform into... (--enable-device-drivers): ... this new option and extend it. * i386/configfrag.ac (--enable-lpr): Adapt to that. * linux/configfrag.ac (AC_OPTION_Linux_ix86_at, AC_Linux_DRIVER): Likewise. (AC_Linux_DRIVER_qemu): New definition. Use it for the `floppy', `ide' and `ne' device drivers. * doc/mach.texi: Document all that.
