It would be easier to answer this if we know what kernel version was involved. An earlier message mentioned "Under the original slink, *ALL* of this functions properly!" So I dusted off my old Slink workstation and started it up. My version runs kernel 2.0.36; is that what we are talking about as "original"? If so, I match your observation that there is no /proc/ide ... but the changes between kernel 2.0.x and 2.2.x were pretty far-reaching ... contrasted with a Potato workstation running 2.2.19, the /proc pseudo-directory differs in many ways, with many fewer file-style paths into kernel variables than the newer kernels have ... so I wouldn't worry much about this one difference. I'm sure it isn't using scci to "interpret" ide, since none of my systems include scsi drives or drivers. -- ------------------------------------"Never tell me the odds!"--- Ray Olszewski -- Han Solo Palo Alto, CA [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Leaf-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user
