Dear FreeBSD, Below are the message threads from my installation questions to Walnut Creek. They have since referred me to you in both this and another e-mail. Please look over ALL the data concerned and let me know what you have as a possible solution. Sincerely, Mike Hebel -----Original Message----- From: Phil Jenvey [mailto:support@cdrom.com] Sent: Wednesday, September 02, 1998 12:14 PM To: Hebel, Mike Subject: Re: Panasonic CD-ROM installation and no response from your tech supp ort... Mike, I am sorry for not responding to your message earlier. I only got to it today, and sent a reply. You must understand that we get many people with problems like yours, and most of the time they're caused by setting the hardware to the incorrect IRQ, or something simple like that. The problem you're recieving is unusual, and it leads me to beleive that there may be some type of problem with the support of your CDROM device. The driver that is supposed to support it may be supporting your CDROM incorrectly. This problem may need the attention of some of the FreeBSD developers. One of the FreeBSD developers should respond to you very soon after you send an email to questions@freebsd.org.
