Understood. Then please post the output of "lspci -n" instead of the
relevant .config line. The question about the CD-ROM device nodes still
stands.
Hi, unfortunately I can't cut & paste the output of lspci -n and save it
anywhere after rebooting from the LiveCD. I tried mounting one of the
windows partitions but as they are NTFS I was only allowed to mount them
read only... (I'm sure on my other machine I count mount NTFS rw?)
I have written the output of lspci to a log file but from Windows I
can't read EXT3 partitons... I'll get round to it.
Anyway, the CDROMS are found by the kernal as just:
/dev/hda LiveCD self-discovery works
/dev/hdb LiveCD self-discovery fails.
Note there is no number after the hd{a,b} and yet my BIOS refers to them
as being Master and Slave respectively...
Hope this helps for now.
Cheers
Alan
