If you like, you can keep going with this behavior (unnecessary, but not harmful), and just mount the cd from /dev/scd0. If you want the cd to function as a regular ide device, you have to use tell ide-scsi to ignore /dev/hdc (syntax depends on whether it's a loadable module or built in to the kernel). Let us know how you're doing. -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Stephen Gran | A diplomat's life consists of three | | steve@lobefin.net | things: protocol, Geritol, and alcohol. | | http://www.lobefin.net/~steve | -- Adlai Stevenson | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Attachment:
