I and several others have experienced problems with strange timeouts, complaints that there's no CD in the drive, and other frustrating what-not. We can read some amount of data and then without warning the fool thing gets confused; unmounting and remounting sometimes fixes it. Using the mcd.c and mcdreg.h files from one of the later snaps in the 2.0 kernel fixed the problem for me. If you want, I can make a boot.flp available with a 2.0 kernel and newer Mitsumi driver in it and you can try installing from that. Of course, I could've totally misinterpreted the problem. -- Sean Kelly NOAA Forecast Systems Lab, Boulder Colorado USA Laugh, clown, laugh.
