That was cooker, with kernel-2.2.17-25mdk.
Now I find that the standard 7.2 kernel-2.2.17-21mdk has a serious problem.
When I try to mount my SCSI CD-ROMs I get the message "Could not mount
device. The reported error was: mount: the kernel does not recognize
/dev/cdrom as a block device (maybe `insmod driver'?)"
This is the same whether I use the stock kernel or build my own; and whether
I'm running LM 7.2 or 7.2. It looks like I'll have to move down to
2.2.17-0.24mdk - I wonder whether that will work on cooker?
