while doing the 8.2 install, i tried explicitly with irq9 (and the above io port settings) to no avail. This card does work in 8.2 with isapnp.conf: (IO 0 (SIZE 32) (BASE 0x0340) (CHECK)) # IRQ 11. # High true, edge sensitive interrupt (INT 0 (IRQ 11 (MODE +E))) (note: while the s/w bios on the aha152x specifies irq 9) I believe that this is an individual issue with the cdrom.img (floppy). It's an off & on issue as if, as soon as someone fixes one issue with the cdrom.img, it causes another issue. sort of like a tedder-todder effect. -- Roger ----- Verify my pgp/gnupg signature on my HomePage: http://www.alltel.net/~rogerx/about/index.html
