RE: How to add new cdrom drive after installing Linux

[Martinez, Michael - CSREES/ISTM]

Just plug it in. When linux boots, it'll recognize and configure the hardware. To figure out which device file to use to access the cdrom drive, type "dmesg" and scan through to find some references to your drive. you'll see /dev/hdd or hdc or something like that.   Michael Martinez System Administrator (Contractor) Information Systems and Technology Management CSREES - United States Department of Agriculture (202) 720-6223 -----Original Message----- From: Ravi Kumar Munduri [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, July 01, 2002 12:13 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: How to add new cdrom drive after installing Linux Hi   I want to know the procedure for adding new cdrom drive after installing linux.       Thanks in advance,   by ravi kumar
