HarM:  Are you sure it would be /dev/hdc and not /dev/hdc1?  The HD is
partitioned into several volumes.  (I have tried mounting /dev/hdc,
/dev/hdc1, /dev/hdc2, etc. with no change.)  Plus DiskDrake still
doesn't  show me any tab for /dev/hdc.

Yes, I'm sure...that way you mount the whole disk i.e. all partitions.


Ah, good to know.

Which makes me think: Could it be that the cd-rom was a CD-writer?
If so there are probably still lines in lilo (/etc/lilo.conf) like append
/dev/hdc=ide-scsi.
Remove those lines from /etc/lilo.conf and run "lilo" (as su/root) to make it
stick.

Yep, that did the trick. Thanks very much for your help, you nailed this one quickly!
