Hi, hm don't you think you're on the wrong mailing list?????? This is a PHP Mailing list (yes indeed it is a install Mailinglist but for php relevant issues..). If you need to recompile your kernel, get the kernel from www.kernel.org (you don't need to copy them from cd!)
Greetings, Stefan Siefert -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Ray Harris (RR) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Gesendet: Donnerstag, 20.

This is the first time this has happened to me... all the other (prior) versions of RedHat worked fine (in this regard). I purchased a new motherboard (133MHz bus & RAM as well as ATA 100) that has an enbedded/onboard VIA C3 CPU on it (ostensibly Intel compatible according to the dude in the store), in addition to on-board video/sound/NIC. I downloaded RH7.2 from the RH web-site so that it would work with all the new hardware. It booted from the CD just fine, and installed just fine. Then, after re-boot..... when trying to mount the CD-ROM.... it says... "/dev/cdrom is not a valid block device" I ran GNOME to see if I could run some other programs to "troubleshoot" the situation, and I got several messages to the effect... "make sure that CD-ROM support is compiled into the kernel..." ... well, in order to re-configure and re-compile the kernel.... you need to copy the source from a CD..... (which cannot happen). Has this happened to anyone else? Is this a bug? Is there a problem with the kernel in the RH install download from the web-site? Anyone have any ideas as to what to do? The hard drive is on IDE0 and the CD-ROM is on IDE1 - both jumpered as "master". THANKS IN ADVANCE !!!!
