Hi; I've been fighting with beta2 for so long I think I may have gone into terminal brainf@rt mode. I finally have it recognizing the cdrom, the cdrw and the floppy at boot (no mount point errors) but I can't for the life of me remember how to leave supermount enabled and still have a user accessible removable media drive. All three drives in fact.
I have managed to mount the cdrom manually with the install disks inserted; which is weird since supermount is supposed to be on. Some of my backup data files are hangovers on CD-R from when I still dual booted Windows and I can't make the drive read them. Images saved from the past, a few directories of MP3s, etc. That may be a beta problem but I won't know unless I can get consistent drive performance otherwise. I'll need a peak at someone's fstab (working supermount) to stimulate the gray matter in order to complete the job. If it's a beta bug I'll be able to find what so I can make a bug report. Can anybody throw an old dog a bone? Thanks.
