Try typing "dmesg|grep CD" into the command line. Here's what I get on RH9:
hdc: PHILIPS CDRW3210S, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive hdd: TOSHIBA DVD-ROM SD-M1612, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
Last time I checked, tho, the dvd reading was misconfigured, but I don't think that is evident from the above 2 lines = )
If you can copy the list on the output from your dmesg|grep... that would be a handy starting place. You can grep hd instead of CD to see hard drives, roughly speaking.
