The first IDE interface runs fine. I bought el-cheapo 16 bit sound card with PNP and a 40 pin IDE interface for a second IDE port to run my CDROM from. The CDROM is a 16x Mitsumi non-proprietary interface. I have been unable to configure the second IDE port to access the CDROM because, since it is a Mitsumi and the kernel makes a distinction, I don't know if should be configured as "controller wcd1", "device wcd1" or "mcd1". I have ensured the master/slave jumpers are correct and that there are no IRQ conflicts. Any Hints? Best Regards, Paul Leskar
