Output of ide-devfs.sh WITHOUT disk in drive ide/host-1/bus1/target/lun0/part ide/hd/c-1b1tu0p discs/disc-1/part WITH disk in drive ide/host-1/bus1/target/lun0/part ide/hd/c-1b1tu0p discs/disc-1/part no difference! My machine has primary and secondary IDE ribbons with two devices on each. Ribbon1: Lite On DVD writer and Zip 100 Ribbon2: Floppy and second hard drive. Mike
