SOrry for the slow response. If all goes well this device should eventually (in a month or two) be supported. Most ATAPI devices use the bridge from Shuttle or the one from another company, of which I cannot remember the name at the moment. The difficulty is twofold at the moment. First the wire protocol has to be implemented and second some form of atapi driver on top of this has to be created. If you want to be sure to stay on top of this subscribe yourself to the usb-bsd@egroups.com mailing list. I'll save a copy of your message locally in the appropriate folder to update you when it is ready, but I have the tendency to forget that or postpone it until it is already in 4.x included :-) Cheers, Nick On Sun, 16 Jan 2000, Michael Robinson wrote: > I just received a HP USB CD-RW drive.
