can't get get PCMCIA CD-ROM to mount during install.

Hi, I'm in the middle of an install, and I can't get my external PCMCIA CD-ROM to mount. I'm installing the newest Slink on an IBM ThinkPad 755c, and the CD-ROM is an old EXP 940. I've configured PCMCIA with the CD-ROM, the light comes on and it opens and closes, but it won't mount when I go

PCMCIA CD-ROM

Is there a way to edit pcmcia.conf or cdrom.opts or is there a boot parameter that will make my EXP-940 CD-ROM get recognized as a CD-ROM. Right now it is being recognized as: "tty00 is a 16550A". My card is listed in pcmcia.conf, but in supported.cards it says that some work and some don't.

Unfortunately not _all_ of the publishing houses provide complete and quality controlled disks. If you didn't get an Official debian cd, you might want to consider doing so before moving on. I am pretty happy with this $1.98 set from linuxmall: http://www.linuxmall.com/shop/00989?cat=ROOT&sort=2&vi
