On a related note, I just replaced my mobo and dvdrom drive and linux booted
fine and kudzu configured the new chipset. yaaayyyyy!!!
In addition, the new drive is a dvd/cdrw combo deal, and it is correctly
identified in kde systems control and harddrake. again yaayyy.
However, the scsi emulation did not automagically get configured. Where is
an uptodate site I can look to get this set up?
TIA,
