[snip....]

In the file, find the line:

# USE_DMA=1

Change it to:

USE_DMA=1

This will tak affect on the next boot. (It is accessed by
/etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit - you can run "hdparm -d1 /dev/hda" to turn on DMA
for the first hard drive.

You can run "hdparm -d /dev/hda" to see if it is already turned on. If
it is, then you don't gain anything by editing the file. You can check
most of the setting just by running "hdparm /dev/hda".
