Autoprobing for the cdu31a and cdu33a in the wrong place makes the machine lock up very often. My command line (from lilo.conf) is: isp16=0x340,10,Sony cdu31a=0x340,10 (I _do_ have a CDU33A - it's the 2x version of the CDU31A and uses the same driver.) Once you get the driver looking in the right place and reserving memory there, a lot of other drivers should skip their probing for nonexistent hardware much quicker. -- Carey Evans <*> [EMAIL PROTECTED] "these are not inherent flaws in the operating system -- they don't happen by accident.
