Michael,

Here's the output...

[root@linux ~]# dmesg |grep cd
uhci_hcd 0000:00:07.2: UHCI Host Controller
uhci_hcd 0000:00:07.2: irq 11, io base 0000c400
uhci_hcd 0000:00:07.2: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 1
uhci_hcd 0000:00:07.3: UHCI Host Controller
uhci_hcd 0000:00:07.3: irq 11, io base 0000c800
uhci_hcd 0000:00:07.3: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 2

What do you suggest I do?

Thanks
Ngentot!

Replace hdb with the actual device name.

Remember linux is case sensitive:

dmesg |grep CD

Do you have any idea how the drive are connected. Which is master / slave and what controller?

You might want to look at the entire output of dmesg.

Here's the PC configuration...

IDE Controller 1:
Master: hda - Start-up Drive
Slave: DVD ROM

IDE Controller 2:
Master: hdc - Data Drive
Slave: hdd - Data Drive

For some reason Fedora isn't picking up the CDROM. It appears in the BIOS but the OS doesn't seem to recognise it.

Hmmm....

If you have a DVD, I would do the following:

dmesg|grep DVD

This will now tell you what device it has assigned. In addition, if it is a DVD, then in /mnt you will see dvd and not cdrom.

I my system I get the following when I issue dmesg:

dmesg |grep DVD
hdc: _NEC DVD_RW ND-1300A, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
hdc: ATAPI 40X DVD-ROM DVD-R CD-R/RW drive, 2048kB Cache, UDMA(33)

and
dmesg |grep CD
hdc: _NEC DVD_RW ND-1300A, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
hdc: ATAPI 40X DVD-ROM DVD-R CD-R/RW drive, 2048kB Cache, UDMA(33)
Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.20

Then when I do a ls /mnt I get:

ls /mnt
dvd samba usbflash

If the DVD is writeable you'll also have the following in /media:

ls /media
cdrecorder

Hope this helps

Thanks for the help E.

gmesg | grep DVD

A public key.

I'm thinking i've got an iterrupt issue. What do you think?
