Dear all,

I have just added a CDRW to my Redhat linux box. In order to make the burning process 
better, I have my HDD1 and the CDRW connected to IDE1, HDD2 and CDROM connected to 
IDE2. (Previously HDD1 & 2 connected to IDE1, CDROM IDE2) HDD2 is mainly for backup 
purposes, and most linux files is on HDD1, such as /, /boot, /usr, etc.
Now when I start again, there is a startup problem. It seems the kernal doesn't mount 
the filesystem. After manually mount some dirs such as /usr, /home, it seems ok in 
text mode, but can't start X. It said something like "Font missing". I wonder what has 
happened, and whether it is necessary to avoid CDRW and CDROM connected to the same 
IDE.

Many thanks,

Michael
