I read the answer sometime ago in the forums, but I'm not sure if I recall corectly, anyways: You can change the settings for scsi-emulated disks/cdroms in /proc/ide/hdX/settings. To turn DMA on, you have to echo someting like echo "using_dma:1" > /proc/ide/hdX/settings and to view your current settings do a cat /proc/ide/hdX/settings. But I'd check the forums, there are a lot of threads about that. Good luck Felix -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
