Re: [expert] CDwriter

[Bill Kenworthy]

Still no go - from reading it looks like Mandrake sets up the system to
whatever CDROM you have on install.  If you change it, the system doesnt
re-adapt!.  There no list of what has been done that I can find - can
you send me your "modules.conf" and I'll see if that gives a clue?. 
Thanks for the help, this very frustrating!

the reply address, not the list so if anyone who has changed their cdrom
to a cdwriter after installing mdk7.2, how did you get to work?
