I have an ATAPI EIDE CD-ROM which works fine as /dev/hdd.  Someone
gave me a hard drive and now I'm trying to get the CD to work on the
IDE port of my AWE32 card.  I read the HOWTOs, etc and I think I've
done everything.  The IDE controller shows up in /proc as ide3, the
IRQ shows up as IRQ10-same as the Creative manual calls for.  I also
checked the Windows setup and that's how it's working there (yes it
works in Windows after I moved it to the SB card's IDE port).

I have set up isapnp and put a hdg=cdrom in lilo.conf.  When the
system boots it tries to talk to the drive but gives up after 2 0FF
errors.  Without the hdg=cdrom it ignores it completely.  I have tried
booting Windows first and I have the DOS mscdex stuff in autoexec.
The drive is jumpered as master.

I give up.  What incredibly dumb thing have I done this time?
