The 7.2 kernel is 2.2.17-21mdk. This therefore means the fix was
applied to the kernel by Mandrake somewhere between patch level 22
and 27 inclusive.
The Change logs for kernel 2.2.17 mention IDE patches in 25mdk and
26mdk without bothering to communicate what was being corrected. I
have an ATAPI CDRW (IDE), but yours is SCSI, so this cannot be it.
Peter,
Is updating a kernel as simple as installing its RPM, replacing
/boot/vmlinuz, then editing /etc/lilo.conf? Does this set up all
the kernel modules correctly?
