The CDs an IDE Atapi, Panasonic CR581, (I think), so judging from the howtos, a generic atapi driver should do the trick. However I still can't mount it. (YET) Oh, and per your question, it's not listed in fstab. I'm still running 4.0 by the way. I ftped 5.1 and burned it to disc, but I just can't copy it to my hard drive. But that's another story. Oh, and in passing, this is a Packard Bell I'm linuxizing. It has one of these screwed up combo sound/modem/fax cards in it. I haven't even begun to configure that mess, but has anyone succeeded with that animal, or should I invest in some better internal hardware?...

What's been tried? How is it (or is it) listed in FSTAB? Is it connected to a card from which other devices successfully mount (like SCSI or IDE)? --- Pardon my english - I went to US public school. -- PLEASE read the Red Hat FAQ, Tips, Errata and the MAILING LIST ARCHIVES! http://www.redhat.com/RedHat-FAQ /RedHat-Errata /RedHat-Tips /mailing-lists To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" as the Subject. -- PLEASE read the Red Hat FAQ, Tips, Errata and the MAILING LIST ARCHIVES! http://www.redhat.com/RedHat-FAQ /RedHat-Errata /RedHat-Tips /mailing-lists To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" as the Subject.
