Well that isn't good! What you should be seeing is something like this: ~ > /sbin/cdrom_id --export /dev/hdc; echo ; /sbin/ata_id --export /dev/hdc ID_CDROM=1 ID_CDROM_CD_R=1 ID_CDROM_CD_RW=1 ID_CDROM_DVD=1 ID_CDROM_DVD_R=1 ID_CDROM_MRW=1 ID_CDROM_MRW_W=1 ID_CDROM_RAM=1 ID_TYPE=cd ID_MODEL=PIONEER_DVD-RW_DVR-110D ID_SERIAL= ID_REVISION=1.17 ID_BUS=ata Was this done after following my earlier advice to modularize your IDE system, and if so, did you load the necessary modules (modprobe ide-cd it821x)? If so, the kernel should be finding the devices. What does "find /sys | grep /ide" report? Can you send me your full dmesg output? Can you try removing one of the drives (hdb)? Maybe this is a hardware issue... -Richard -- [email protected] mailing list
