2.4 or 2.6 is the coice with Debian, None with Ubuntu. How do I force scsi recognition? All installs report hard disk as hdc and dvd/cdrom as hdd. Also tried making it with latest kernel with Debian 2.6-12(??) No dice. In fact most of the time I spent at FreeDel was getting as many people to solve the problem (Of course it helped that there was lovely WiFi hot spot for downloading on other laptop what ever was needed in a jiffy) -- Sudev Barar Learning Linux ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Tame your development challenges with Apache's Geronimo App Server.
