[newbie] usb iomega cdrw
Hi I finally got Mandrake 9.0 to recognize the drive(I don't know how). What can I do to prevent it from not recognizing it again? Also, do I need to mount the drive so I can start using it? Thanks Dooggie Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com
Re: [newbie] USB iomega cdrw
I am new to linux and I don't know how to use supermount. I am trying to convert from windows to linux, but very frustrating. Thanks in advance.

If you are using supermount it will mount the drive when it is attached. Now, I also suggest that you learn to read the kernel messages in /var/log/messages by using the command tail -f /var/log/messages at a root command prompt. Now, disconnect the drive. You should see the USB system let go of the drive. Now, reconnect the drive, you should see it identify and grab the drive to use. The USB system for linux is not hard to use, so don't get freaked out. Rob Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

I waited a minute or so then hit the SysReq key and it continued (spitting out something about hwclock line such and such rc.sysinit. Something about my hardwareclock it doesn't like. I ended up having to comment out a section in rc.sysinit and halt otherwise it just plain refused to boot/shutdown cleanly. Just out of curiosity, what motherboard do you have? Mine's an ASUS A7V (amd 750 processor) Jerry I too have a ASUS A7V (amd duran processor)... I am very new to linux...where can I find rc.sysinit? Did that help? Are you able to use your cdrw?

Looks like a possible IRQ conflict. So if it is a plugin card move it to a new PCI slot but not the one next to the AGP slot. If it is not a plugin card move one of your other cards or change a slot IRQ and see if the bugger comes up. You can do an ifup eth0 in a su console also and see what happens.

This launches the network wizard. Try that, and report back. Anyway, having a network card usually means that the system connects during the boot process. If that's not the case, try typing dmesg in a console, and study any errors concerning the network.
