Hubbard" Sender: owner-hackers@FreeBSD.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Once you guys have resolved which drives will be sent, please let me know - I have also cleared it with Walnut Creek CDROM to send Soren a check for $500 or so for the purpose of buying as many IDE CDROM drivers as he can for the money. That probably won't be more than 3 or 4, so several things would still be very helpful: 1. More bug reports from people who are failing to get IDE CDROMs to work. Exact make and model *please*! 2. Additional donations of drives and/or money. I'd like to send more of each, but that's all I can get authorization for at this this point. Should Soren make clear and obvious progress as a result, I'll be able to get more, but only after that happens. WC's president is very conservative, having sent much hardware out to various people in the past with little actual gain. :-( Jordan
