For the sake of completeness I am sending this to you guys. I have a DELL XPS100 system with a 1.6gig EIDE hard drive and a HITACHI EIDE CDROM. Everything works great except for the cdrom drive, of course. So I got sup-stable2.1 with the ATAPI kernel config file distributed with it and built a new kernel. During boot up everything was recognize, it recognize the my CDROM is a HITACHI and the it's transfer rate is 673KB/sec, 128 volume levels etc... However, when I try to mount it, it claims device not configured. mount_cd9660 /dev/wcd0c /mnt is the command that I used. I noticed that my major number for /dev/wcd0c was 18 and according to devices.386 file form wcd it should be 19, so I changed the MAKEDEV script to use major number 19, tried mounting again and it still did not mount device..device not configured. I also tried editing the devices.386 files changing wcd to 18 instead of 19 and remade the kernel. This time when I tried mounting the cdrom drive I must have hit my hard drive because the system locked up and my hard drive light stay on continously. Is there some hardware setting I should check or maybe this device simply is not supported by this driver? Any help would be greatly appreciated. ;(
