The only thing I found was that I had to have the drive attached to a controller that already had a hard disk attached. I get the unknown phase message on bootup as well but this doesn't seem to make too much difference. Occasionally I have trouble mounting the drive or playing audio CDs on it but ejecting the CD and closing it again seems to fix this most of the time. I guess it isn't the most stable driver in the world but it was put in the RELEASE as ALPHA quality, so I can live with minor hiccups. Now that I have it going finally I am very happy with it. cheers, Carey ========================================================================= Carey Nairn ! email : Carey.Nairn@its.utas.edu.au Networks and Communications ! phone : (002) 20 7419 Information Technology Services ! fax : (002) 20 7898 University of Tasmania. ! =========================================================================
