Hello, I installed the Debian distribution base floppies and everything went OK except for one thing. I was not able to setup the CD drive and this prevents me from going on with installing other portions from the distribution CD. My system is a 486 and has a Sony CD type CDU31A-2 connected to a Sound Blaster 16 (the type that supports 3 kinds of CD drives - Sony, Mitsumi and NEC). I know this is a very old CD drive but this is what I have at the moment for this system. I could not find in the list of drivers one that will work with my configration. I tried the one that is for a Sony CDU31A and I tried the one for SB Pro. Does Linux support this configuration? Is there a different driver? Does anybody know what is the base address for the CD port on the SB16 (there is a jumper to set the IRQ but no setup that I can see for the base address - is it the same base address as the SB itself, and only a different IRQ?)
I am new to this list, can it be recieved in digest form once or twice a day, or only as separate messages?
