If so, i'm not surprised that it works since it looks to FreeBSD just like a standard mitsumi drive/card combo. A genuine SB16 with a Creative Labs supplied CDROM drive will be a wholly different animal, however, and I fear that we have to say that we still don't support it. That is unless Andreas has done something I'm unaware of recently! :-) Bottom line: If this drive now works, then we need to doc it properly. If it doesn't work, then it's getting long past time for it to work. Linux has had such support for AGES now and I'm really hoping that somebody will finally emerge from the woodwork with a working driver. This is getting ridiculous! :-( ** ** If SB16 support HAS been added, then substitute "IDE CDROM" into the last paragraph.. :-) Jordan
