Hi John and Tony.
I do indeed have my CDRW mounted as hdb. I did this only because I
didn't have a spare cable lying around and did have the unused connector
on my HD cable. Therefore I believe that the hdb ID is accurate if not
correct.
I actually had the CDRW working again yesterday but when I rebooted
this morning, I once got the failed does not exist at boot up and the
CDRW drive has once again disappeared from my hardware list in MCC.

Does that go within the quotes? And will that solve my problem or must I
go out and get an additional cable and make my CDRW either hdc or hdd in
order to get this working properly?
Tony, you asked if I had modified my fstab file myself. No I did not. To
the best of my knowledge the scd0 is my actual SCSI CD ROM drive. hdb
and scd1 are however both referring to my new CDRW drive. Do I need to
alter this? if so, what should it say? and yes both scd1 and scd0 exist
in /dev & /mnt?
Again thanks for all your help.
