About to drive _you_ nuts? I was away from the list for a
while... but I do have the phenomenon in mind.
I think the drive to make me nuts would be the shorter ride<BG>
The hardware I have is very similar to yours.
PLease let me see the output of
dmesg
cat /proc/pci
lspcidrake
cat /etc/fstab (AFTER you try installing 7.1 again)
And I am very curious also why /dev/scd0 would work. CDRWs are
normally assigned /dev/sr0, /dev/sr1.... Could THAT
be it? Is your CDRW acting like ONLY a CD-R? You did a manual
/dev/scd0 in 7.0 but the 7.1 install would have done a symbolic
link to /dev/sr0
They should both be block-major-11 but if the W portion isn't
working.... I have no idea what that effect would be.
