I have to disagree with the ATAPI/IDE statement... I am a self-employed PC technician and have almost exclusively used an ATAPI CD chained behind an IDE HD, and so far..( in excess off 100 systems) _NEVER_ a problem. I have at this moment an IDE chained behind an ATAPI on one of my home systems. Everything works perfectly. :) Jaguar [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Sevatio Octavio) wrote: > I have a dilemma in that I have 3 ATAPI devices (CD-R, CD-RW, & TR-4i tape drive) and 1 IDE HD that I would like put in my Linux > Box.
