With the 2.4 kernel, I failed to find a way to get the CD recognised even by loading the modules manually (see below). I guess this is because I had no way to get the SCSI bus rescanned and the needed devices added (see #246790) With 2.6 kernel, all went fine as soon as I manually loaded the following modules (order is important): -ieee1394 -ohci1394 -sbp2 -sr_mod -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (400, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.5-1-686 Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (ignored: LC_ALL set to fr_FR.UTF-8) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
