I had this problem with my CDROM way back in kernel 1.2 (1995). I fixed it by increasing the time-out settings in the BIOS. It also helped to move it to hdb, thus on the first controller, but I am not exactly sure why. But increasing the BIOS settings worked more consistently. I have not had the problem since, so I do not know of a more recent fix. -- Paul Hawkins - Software Engineer - Tivoli Systems, Inc. email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Phone: 512-436-8497 Pager: 800-437-1003
