[-- Attachment #1 --] I have installed FBSD 4.0 on my scsi machine (p450, 128mb, tnt2 ultra, 2940u2w, blaster live, etc...) onto a 8.4 gb IDE HD by itself. I then took same HD to my compaq 7180 (p100, 40mb, s3 trio64 enhanced, etc 5 yr old comp) and reinstalled from cdrom, it is working perfectly except that i cant access my cdrom drive (sony 8x, not compaqs) with either command: /cdrom --with this command i get this: "/cdrom: Permission denied." cd /cdrom --with this command it works but i cant see anything on the drive, i know i have info on it b/c it is the cdrom drive with the 4.0 ISO that i installed FBSD from like 20 secs ago, i cant do any "ls" command to get anything i do know that the cdrom drive works because i did install it from the cdrom drive, also the permissions on the drive are as follows (they seem to be normal and ok) drwxr-xr-x any thoughts?????? thanx Rob Wideman mrboboo@home.com [-- Attachment #2 --] <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" http-equiv=Content-Type> <META content="MSHTML 5.00.3105.105" name=GENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have installed FBSD 4.0 on my scsi machine (p450, 128mb, tnt2 ultra, 2940u2w, blaster live, etc...) onto a 8.4 gb IDE HD by itself.
