First thing we need to do is figure out which kind of CDROM it is.... what
model number of CDROM is it? It may be IDE, it *may* be SCSI or it may be a
"Panasonic" interface. If the latter, I can't help you. If either of the
first two, it's a simple matter of figuring out where in the drive chain it
fits. :-)
