Package: kernel-image-2.6.8-1-686-smp
Version: 2.6.8-3
Severity: normal
File: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.8-1-686-smp
I've got a Dell Precision 650. It's got a SCSI harddisk, a IDE CD-ROM
drive, and a IDE ZIP disk. When I boot this kernel, it fails to detect
the IDE CD-ROM or IDE ZIP disk. Here is the evidence I have for making
this statement:
1. no IDE devices are listed in /proc/devices
2. mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdc /media/cdrom0 says
/dev/hdc is not a valid block device
3. The normal lines in /var/log/dmesg where each
device reports itself are missing. The only ide
related message is as follows
ReiserFS: sda1: Using r5 hash to sort names
Adding 1172736k swap on /dev/sda2. Priority:-1 extents:1

My /etc/modules file has ide-cd, ide-detect and sd_mod in it.

I have discover installed to automatically probe the hardware.
