I know this may not be technically the right place to be starting, but I 
thought I'd mention it here first incase it's a mdk only problem... 

I've got a cdrw drive that's on hdc - I can mount cd's on it fine, but trying 
to use files on it seems to just throw up errors... (eg - trying to install 
Unreal Tournament - the game seems to install file, but all the files copied 
to hd contain junk that's useless) I know the cd itself is fine as I've just 
tried it in a slackware 8.0 box (with the same cdrw) and all was well. And I 
know the drive is fine since it's perfectly capable of installing the likes 
of windows. 

Now here's where things get fun... I'm running a dual athlon 1600mp setup, 
with 256 mb ram ... Has anyone come across other problems with the 760mp 
chipset with regards to ide life? I've enabled the mem=nopentium option as a 
quick workaround to the recently discovered amd bug, but I doubt that'll make 
any difference.  Google searches have come up blank as well :/ I'm currently 
running the 2.4.8smp kernel that comes with an install of 8.1 but I don't 
think the 2.4.17 series will have anything that'll help me...
