It looks to me like you didn't upgrade the appropriate packages along with your kernel. Look at the section "Current Minimal Requirements" in /usr/src/linux/Documentation/Changes for the relevant details. > > need help on this > > actually I use downloaded k7 kernel.deb, in this platform , I keep can > not access ide cdrom > but it can cdrecord.

I'm guessing you have a cdrom and a cdrom r/w on this machine? How are you trying to access your cdrom? What error messages are you getting when you do so? Your probably just not pointing to the correct device. You can find out which device you need to point to by looking at the output of - $ dmesg|less hth, kent -- From seeing and seeing the seeing has become so exhausted First line of "The Panther" - R.
