Same problem on Thinkpad T60 running 3.0.0-14-generic with a non-native but compatible CD drive (took it from a T40, iirc): /dev/sr0 only created with acpi=off boot parameter. There is no BIOS setting to disable the drive (re comment #18). The drive model is in the log (during acpi=off boot only):
kernel: [ 1.043753] scsi 1:0:0:0: CD-ROM HL-DT-ST DVD-ROM GDR8083N 0K03 PQ: 0 ANSI: 5 kernel: [ 1.050088] sr0: scsi3-mmc drive: 10x/24x cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray kernel: [ 1.050092] cdrom: Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.20 kernel: [ 1.050215] sr 1:0:0:0: Attached scsi CD-ROM sr0 The drive used to be detected by Ubuntu fine at some point in the past (I don't remember if this was before or after grub->grub2 update, but I don't think I ever used lilo). Should this bug be marked as a [regression]? Is there any debugging information that can be provided? Should we file an upstream report if it has been positively determined that this is induced by grub? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/198319 Title: Lenovo 3000 N200 DVD-rom missing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/198319/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
