But can you (for example) copy an audio-CD from one drive to the other ? Did you remember to issue the command (as root) : "lilo" (without the quotes) ? In your "/etc/lilo.conf" - file the append-line should read something like "append=" hdc=ide-scsi hdd=ide-scsi devfs=mount " and nothing about the CD's ( who in this context are nothing but additional drives, althoug SCSI-ones.).
Then your "/etc/fstab"-file should read something like this : /dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrom auto user,iocharset=iso8859-1,umask=0,exec,codepage=850,ro,noauto 0 0 /dev/scd1 /mnt/cdrom2 auto user,iocharset=iso8859-1,umask=0,exec,codepage=850,ro,noauto 0 0 If it doesn't, edit it by hand (as root) and save it. Reboot and check. Another medthod : Rightclick an empthy spot on your desktop, choose "create new --> CDROM-device --> device" and fill in the appropriate settings (probably already there in the pull-down menu). Concerning the CD-player : Open it, click the tools-symbol and then "kscd options" and choose "/dev/scd1" for your "/mnt/cdrom2". That'll do the trick (I suppose). If you have further troubles, don't hesitate to ask again, but please attach your "lilo.conf" and "fstab" files. Maybe I can be to some help. Kaj haulrich
