I have had an HP Colorado 8Gb working for some time with not much problems (until it died). You need the following entries in your kernel config file: options ATAPI #Enable ATAPI support for IDE bus options ATAPI_STATIC #Don't do it as an LKM device wst0 #IDE Tape Drive Re-build your kernel, reboot, then configure the device: cd /dev ./MAKEDEV wst0 You should now find a new device in /dev called rwst0. That should be all you need to get you going. Let me know if you have any problems. -- Damien Tougas Converging Technology Solutions, Inc.
