Hi, I'm migrating my Mandrake 8.2 system to a new laptop (Toshiba 2400). This machine has a DVD/CDROM drive, but when I boot I get the following message:
Assigning raw devices: cannot locate block device '/dev/dvd' (No such file or directory) Once the machine has booted, the CD works fine, but not the DVD (no surprise). I also have a second floppy listed in fstab: /mnt/floppy2 /mnt/floppy2 supermount dev=/dev/fd1,fs=vfat,--,iocharset=iso8859-15,umask=0,sync,codepage=850 0 0 which reappears if I try to remove the entry (I think). Searching for this DVD error message I found one post (not Mandrake, SuSe perhaps?) that suggested appending nobiospnp to the command line. I have tried this but it did not help. Any ideas?
