Hi Dale.
As far as I'm aware, Mandrake 7.2 IS supposed to support these drives - that
is the main reason I upgraded from 7.1.
However, I have exactly the same problem as you do, and as yet no-one has
been able to help me...
This is almost the only thing that keeps me dual-booting with Windoze. I
need access to that drive.
Once that is sorted, I just need to get my sound working, my USB webcam going
and my scanner (which is a Canon BJC-80 with a scanner cartridge instead of
the ink one) and I will be completely Windoze free!
Please let us know if you have any success.
Regards,
Ozz.
