I have upgraded to 8.2 on both my desktop and my laptop. I have
used the cdrom on my desktop and used my floppy drive as well. I did
some work on my laptop that I wanted to add to my desktop but now the
floppy and both cdrom's (one is a burner) are locked. The only changes
I have made
I have had similar problems on my Dell Inspriron 4100 notebook. This i
think is caused by the floppy and CD sharing hardware interfaces.
I did read somewhere on the Mandrake website about this and have solved
the problems i was having by changing the method the floppy is mounted
from automatic
, and
supermount.
The same thing can be done for the floppy drive. Hope this helps

Don, Thanks for posting this, perhaps you could help me with almost the
same problem. I have a cdrom, (slave ide channel 1) and a cd/DVD (slave ide
channel 2) and a usb cd writer. I know it is seen as /dev/scd0, and can
burn
I have a CD-RW also, but have not set it up (I'm concentrating on locking my
box down--SECURITY). How is the program Gcombust?
