Have you ever looked inside or had someone look inside your computer to see where the CDROM is hooked up? The SoundBlaster cards have a connector on the end of the card that would be connected to your cdrom. This is where your cdrom would be connected if it is a scd. I have a NEC downstairs but I don't have any idea how I would hook it up in FreeBSD. That is where the output from "dmesg" comes in. It will tell you if it detects the CDROM. You can also do something like "dmesg > cdrom.txt" and then include cdrom.txt in your email. That will let someone see if you need to mount a different device when you want to use it. If it is really an atapi cdrom, and I don't think it is at this point, you have to use some of # # The 'ATA' driver supports all ATA and ATAPI devices. # It can reuse the majors of wd.c for booting purposes. # You only need one "device ata" for it to find all # PCI ATA/ATAPI devices on modern machines. device ata device atadisk # ATA disk drives device atapicd # ATAPI CDROM drives #The folliwing options are valid on the ATA driver: # # ATA_STATIC_ID: controller numbering is static (like the old driver) # else the device numbers are dynamically allocated. # ATA_ENABLE_ATAPI_DMA: enable DMA on ATAPI device, since many ATAPI devices # claim to support DMA but doesn't actually work, this # is not enabled as default. options ATA_STATIC_ID #options ATA_ENABLE_ATAPI_DMA # # For older non-PCI systems, these are the lines to use: #device ata0 at isa? port IO_WD1 irq 14 #device ata1 at isa? port IO_WD2 irq 15 BTW, most of the SoundBlaster-16's are hooked up at device sbc0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 flags 0x15 Kent > > On Sun, 11 Jun 2000, Kent Stewart wrote: > > > > > > > Tyler Spivey wrote: > > > > > > why wont: > > > device scd > > > > Is the Sony CDROM hooked up to your SoundBlaster because if it isn't > > then you don't use the scd driver.
