It does however mean that the drive is not broken. If your CDROM is connected to the primary IDE controller then you must have device wdc0 in your kernel. If your CDROM is connected to the secondary IDE controller then you must have device wdc1 in your kernel. If your CDROM is the first drive on the either controller then it must be set to master. If your CDROM is the second drive on the either controller then is must be set to slave. When trying to MAKEDEV the CDROM try this also. /dev/MAKEDEV wcd0c <--- note the added c Keep at it. You will figure it out. -- __ __ / 0\ / 0\ Thank you * Highperformance.net ) Wannabe Sysadmin * The homeless domain )-------( Jason Wells * "Pardon me sir, spare some bandwidth?" \_____/
