Ummm--no you did nothing wrong--just incomplete. I don' know
how much help kudzu was in setting up configuration, but hen
it mainly makes hardware drivers talk to the device and the
system.
What version, what distro, and what does dmesg say?
Also
cat /etc/conf.modules
lspcidrake
cat /etc/fstab
cat /etc/mtab
cat /proc/modules
ls -l /dev/cdrom
are all needed o make sure the config is correct. Let's do
this once. The type of HOWTO you speak of may arise out of
our exchange, and if so, you can be the author when it goes to
linuxdoc.org
