Hi, I'm rather new to linux (all I have done is used other systems, and installed it on a few computers). I have an old 486 box kicking around and I want to install Mandrake 6.0 on it (I've installed it no problem before, just not on this box). The trouble is when I try to install it, the installation cannot find the cd-rom. First of all the cd-rom is a panasonic compatible drive (nscd-2x-p) which plugs into my SB compatible Zoltrix 1600 sound card. During the install I'm given the choice to choose my type of cd-rom, I choose the non-scsi route and then select soundblaster/panasonic for cd-rom. Autoprobe fails to find it. I have tried to do it manually with sbpcd=0x220,7,1 but it hasn't worked (maybe I'm doing something wrong here) Any ideas? thanks, "The Universe is, at any time, what you say it is." ----James Burke----
