However, I'm an idiot. I never tried my CD-ROM! Today I finally did, and it doesn't work at all -- it says "device not configured" when I try to access it. I double-checked, and if I boot with my original installed kernel, the CD-ROM still works fine; moreover, my custom kernel does have the CD-ROM enabled (CD9660 and atapicd). I do have this set, FWIW, and perhaps I should not: device ata0 at isa? port IO_WD1 irq 14 device ata1 at isa? port IO_WD2 irq 15 and I also enable DMA to the CD-ROM. I have some things to try (disabled DMA, for example), and a possible source fo the difficulty is that I applied the patches to a 4.5-RC #5 kernel rather than to an up-to-date stable. This is on a Dell Inspiron 8000, with a CD-RW/DVD combo drive in the "fixed bay." Per "atacontrol reinit 0", I have this on channel 0: i8k# atacontrol reinit 0 Master: ad0 ATA/ATAPI rev 5 Slave: acd0 ATA/ATAPI rev 5 Also, when I do the reinit, I get this in the log: Mar 12 17:12:03 i8k /kernel: ad0: DMA limited to UDMA33, non-ATA66 cable or device but no other indications, at either reinit or mount time, that anything's wrong. - Wanted to let you know that there's a problem & apologize for not noticing it earlier. - Will try disabling the DMA (though I doubt that will make a difference) and cvsuping the to latest stable, and re-applying the patches, to see if that makes any difference, and will look around for obvious diagnostic tools. - Is there anything else I should be doing to help you diagnose the problem. -- Brian T.
