Subject: Re[2]: OSs installation and problem
Hi Christian,
I have a Pioneer 24X CD-ROM drive and a PCMCIA SCSI 2
card also by Pioneer. Please refer to here for the
product review:

and here for the picture:

I started the install with both the PCMCIA floppy drive
and PCMCIA CD-ROM drive attached. Basically, I
think mandrake tried looking for the CD-ROM,
but failed, so it asked me for input. However,
whatever I input, mandrake will still not recognize
the CD-ROM :(.
Thank you for your help.
