That means they have not been compiled as modules, so hopefully they are compiled into the kernel (not "loaded by the kernel"). When you are doing the kernel configuration before compiling (hopefully you are using xconfig), clicking "y" compiles the option into the kernel, and "m" compiles it into a separate file, which is a loadable kernel module. > I ran lilo, no errors reported.

In the section labeled "ATA/IDE/MFM/RLL support", click on "IDE, ATA and ATAPI Block devices". In the next window, you should turn OFF (select 'n') "Include IDE/ATAPI CDROM support" (the ide-cd driver), and turn ON, either as a module or compiled into the kernel, the "SCSI emulation support" (the ide-scsi driver). In the section labeled "SCSI support", turn on "SCSI support" (the scsi driver), "SCSI CD-ROM support" (the sr driver), and "SCSI generic support" (the sg driver). What we are looking for, is a message in /var/log/dmesg that looks like: Attached scsi CD-ROM sr0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 0, lun 0 sr0: scsi3-mmc drive: 32x/32x writer cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.12 That's a good one :-) Duane _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
